Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

This is a very confusing post, because saturated fat is not nearly as harmful as trans fat, which is hydrogenated fat, generally done to make unsaturated fat behave like it's saturated making it harder. Trans fat is extremely unhealthy, while many oils like Omega 3-6-9 are saturated fats, but are essential to your health.

But I absolutely agree in your skepticism about a "created" saturated fat. There is very good reason to be skeptical about any industrially modified oil or fat.
