I've been told that polyunsaturated fat is good for you (omega 3 and all that kind of stuff), monounsaturated fat is neither good or bad for you and saturated fat is bad for you. Hope thats right!

Some fat is vital to survive but i dont think trans fat is good in any amount and almost everyone in the UK has more fat then they need in their diet.
