Famous Bowls to Remain Trans-Fatty
In two previous posts, (1 and 2) I have discussed the KFC Famous Bowl and KFC's pledge to eliminate trans fats from its menu. I wondered if the pledge to eliminate the trans fats would spell the demise of the Famous Bowl. But, no! The Famous Bowl will live on :
But KFC said some products -- among them chicken pot pie, biscuits, mashed potatoes with gravy and "Famous Bowls" -- will continue to contain trans fat."KFC is committed to continuing to improve the nutritional quality of these items," the company's news release said, without explaining why those foods won't be trans fat-free.
To Famous Bowl fans out there, this is a tremendous victory. But does it represent true support for the Famous Bowl, or instead a repudiation of KFC's trans fat elimination policy? Surely the pundits will spend a lot of hot air on this until the new Congress convenes. Oh wait. Wrong story. Sorry.
