Sorry to burst your bubble and I am a bit of a pain with this stuff I admit but I have triplet 12 yr old girls and I watch what I feed them 'cause I hate how the food industry gets away with this stuff..here is another article and I quote alittle bit from it.....



Note the amount of total fat listed and compare it to the breakdown of specific fats on the label. The results may surprise you. A box of reduced-fat Triscuits, for example, has 3 grams of fat per 7-cracker serving. Saturated fats make up 1/2 gram and monounsaturated fats 1 gram. The crackers have no polyunsaturated fats, so the remaining 1 1/2 grams must be the only other kind of dietary fat -- trans fat.
