HEALTH TIP OF THE WEEK
Eating out? Watch for trans fat
Have you been trying to keep foods that contain trans fat out of your kitchen? Good move! But what about when you're eating in a restaurant? Some restaurants still use trans fat when frying food.

Arm yourself with the details you need to order wisely.
