Assistant Cook
HI!
I found out two years ago that the blistery rash I got after eating out, and eating fried foods, and eating at DENNY'S was from Partially or Completely or any kind of HYDROGENATED OIL.
So, I must talk with all restaurant cooks or managers before I eat out anywhere to see if they can make me something with a natural oil in a separate pan. NO GRILLS that have been tainted.
At McDonalds the burgers don't bother me, but the so-called HEALTHY GRILLED CHICKEN does. Since it says NO TRANSFAT in that chicken, I called corporate. They told me that the chicken comes in frozen and may well be coated with trans fat by the originating company, but they don't add any so they don't claim it. SO YOU ARE EATING TRANSFAT.
ALSO anything marked "0 Transfat" is meaningless, because our government allows any fat to be list as ZERO if it is less than .5 milligrams per serving, and a serving is ambiguous. So they just jockey the serving down, till it fits the bill. They are supposed to list the hydrogenated oil, or margarines, or interestified oil or fractionated oils on the ingredients list, but they are not doing it. Reese's Peanut Butter cups by Hershey's no longer has it listed, but if I eat it RASH! So my skin knows more than they do! Call them on it, they lie, then they send you $10 bucks for complaining.
So, I made everything I ate from scratch for Thanksgiving for the first time. I used Palm Oil, Olive Oil, BUTTER, and it was great! It was two days cooking for two people, but it was delicious. I used my DESCOWARE cast iron DUTCH OVENS, and other stainless steel pots, and my Pyrexware to rebake. A trial, but worth it!
Gotto go, made myself hungry TIME FOR LEFT OVERS.
OH yeah, the reason I am starting this thread, ANYONE OUT THERE AVOIDING TRANS FATS? START giving my your details, and your recipes.
Where can you eat out, what can you eat there? What do you cook with?
Thanks!
