Abstract:It has recently been suggested that consumers dependence on convenience and processed foods, combined with the food industry's lack of interest in - or ignorance of - the basic needs of health, is leading to an increase in the consumption of saturated and trans fatty acids (TFAs). This new report from just-food defines and offers an insight into this sector, as it seems that both consumers and the science world are unsure of exactly what they are. It looks at the varying levels of response to the issue of TFA's, and the approaches taken by the food industries and regulatory bodies worldwide. It then outlines how retailers and manufacturers are developing and marketing products in response to these changes - and finding alternatives. The report also includes findings of a survey conducted to show the levels of knowledge that adults have of TFA's and other health related issues.
