Arby's Plans to Cut Trans Fat

Obesity is becoming a major problem in the United States. Too many people resort to fast food because of their fast paced lives. Arby's plans on cutting trans fat from their french fries. No longer will consumers of this fast food chain will have clogged arteries due to their fries. As a matter of fact, Arby's is one of the last of the 3,500 restaurants worldwide to do so. KFC and Taco Bell have also done this to their menu's . I really feel that this is a good idea because our country is experiencing so many heart problems. By doing this people's bad cholesterol levels will be lowered and good cholersterol levels will rise. It makes sense for fast food restaurants to do this. Everywhere you go you see fast food places trying to make their menu's more healthy. From salads, to South Beach Diet foods, these restaurants are finally seeing the problem with America's obesity. Now mind you fast food in general is not the best thing to be eating, but they cannot be eliminated. The only thing they can do is make their foods the best they can with still making a profit. I believe that more foods will be cut of trans fats in the future in most fast food restaurants. However, will this ulimately cause obesity levels to drop? I mean, they are still eating fast food.
