Mamma's little baby loves shortening bread

Well. Don't say I didn't warn you. First they go after smoking in the name of "public health". Now the same asshole nanny types want to ban any restaruants in New York City from using transfats.

NEW YORK — Three years after the city banned smoking in restaurants, health officials are talking about prohibiting something they say is almost as bad: artificial trans fatty acids.

The city health department unveiled a proposal Tuesday that would bar cooks at any of the city's 24,600 food service establishments from using ingredients that contain the artery-clogging substance, commonly listed on food labels

I've spoken to many people who were for smoking bans. I told them that if you disregard the rights of tavern owners and disallow then from allowing smoking in their own establishments, it wouldn't be long before those same dogooders would be after other things they think are bad for you. Now it's smoking, tomorrow it's Crisco. What will be next?

Don't say I didn't warn you.
