Low fat means 3 grams or less per serving. This process forms another type of fat called trans fatty acids. Trans fatty acids are believed to act similarly to saturated fat in the body. Food manufacturers, especially bakers, use hydrogenated oils and saturated fat because they make a flaky, tender product that often lasts longer. The FDA is currently deciding whether or not to require listing trans fatty acids on the nutrition facts panels of all packages.
Nuts are naturally high in fat.
High Oleic oil has slightly more monounsaturated fats than regular oils. This premium oil is found in products like our Trader Joe's Hawaiian Style Potato Chips. Mono and diglycerides are components of fats that act as emulsifiers in foods. An emulsifier is an additive that functions to keep oil and water or other nonfat liquid from separating. They do not actually contain fats.
