Kraft successfully completed voluntary trans fat reduction efforts in the U.S. and met the Food and Drug Administration’s on-pack trans fat labeling deadline as of January 1, 2006.
We also ensured that the combination of saturated fat plus trans fat did not increase, compared with each product’s original formulation.

Although some trans fat occurs in foods naturally, mostly in animal products, the major source in the U.S. diet is from partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. Many authorities, including the FDA and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, agree that there is a relationship between trans fat intake and the risk of coronary heart disease.

To reduce trans fat content, Kraft has significantly reformulated products in seven categories: cereal, cookies, crackers, pizza, desserts, meals and meats. Popular products, such as Oreo cookies, Wheat Thins crackers and Jell-O pudding snacks, are now labeled as containing 0 grams trans fat per serving.

Fewer than 2.5 percent of Kraft products are required to be labeled as containing trans fat, including items where trans fat occurs naturally, such as meats and cheeses. Also included are products where reformulation efforts would have negatively altered the taste and quality of the product.
