LOOP HOLES

Must every law that we pass in this country have a million loop holes. A story regarding trans fat in our food products, showed what a sham our laws are.

As long as there is less then half a gram of fat per serving, the product can be labeled as "zero grams trans fat". But was is a SERVING? One would assume a cookie as a serving; but it seems some of them are three servings or more per cookie. So we are misled to believe that we are not gorging ourselves with artery-clogging fats, when in fact we are.

As of late the consumer is left out on a limb, wondering what and whom to believe.
