      Trans fats are bad.

      Excess saturated fat could be bad depending on the health condition of the person.

        ok, yeah, agreed.

        Excess saturated fat could be bad depending on the health condition of the person.

        This doesn’t match my reading of the literature. Even if someone had extensive CVD dietary fat wont increase their bad outcome risks. The damaged cholesterol (glycated and oxidate) is the warning sign of CVD issues - and that is caused by dietary sugar/carbs/industrial oils.

      No one food is “healthy” or “unhealthy”, it always depends on how much of it and what else you eat.

        True. But fat is one of the foods it’s hard to eat too much of.

        Try to sit down to a big bowl of butter. It’s just hard to eat by itself. In fact it’s one of the tricks used in the keto community to determine a addictive craving versus actual hunger. If you’re willing to eat butter by itself, you’re hungry, if you’re not willing to eat the butter but you still have a craving that’s addiction
