Do NITRO-TECH bars contain "trans-fat"

I love NITRO-TECH bars because of their taste and protein content.

I am trying to figure out whether they contain any significant amounts
of "trans-fat".

Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sy

The label doesn't say anything, you actually have to read it.

In spite of your constant denigration of me, my flaccid advice and
supercilious "debate" style, I see you have a fine sense of humor. I
slapped each of my knees repeatedly while reading your clever quip and
for several moments thereafter.

Nevertheless, you have my pity.

Interesting.

I neglected to mention that the label lists lots of polysyllabic
ingredients but no mention of the word "hydrogenated" which I
understand is a process which creates "trans-fat".

Can "trans-fat" be found in any other form or can I assume there is
none in this product?

Thanks,

Yes.

Are there any fractionated oils in it? I think those also contain trans-
fat.

I just checked the label again and found :

" Fractionated Palm Kernel Oil"


Can anyone explain how meaningful that is?

Fractionation is the isolation of a particular part of the oil. They use it
to increase or decrease the proportion of certain fatty acids in order to
alter the melting point and behavior of the oil and products made from it.
I'm not sure exactly how this affects the lipid profile, but it's a physical
process and does not produce trans fatty acids.
