In case you thought trans fats had already been banned (and they essentially have), the FDA is preparing to finish off what was once a popular ingredient in the American food supply. In the Trump administration's fall Unified Agenda, which posted Wednesday, the agency said it plans to issue a proposed rule in June that will "remove all mention of partially hydrogenated oils" as well as "revoke all prior sanctioned uses."

Trans fat has no party: Obama's FDA started the crackdown on trans fat, but the Trump FDA is finishing it. It's another example of the Trump administration advancing a major Obama administration nutrition priority. FDA has also forged ahead on Obama-era agenda items like the update to the Nutrition Facts label and national menu labeling.
