Re: Law about food contents?

This ETH food science web site (in German only) makes an interesting point. They say that as long as Switzerland doesn't make it mandatory for food manufacturers to declare trans-fats or introduce a limit on their use in food products (only required for baby food), it's difficult for consumers to discern what type of fats they are eating.

Sounds as though Muze is right in that it's best to limit consumption of food with hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated fats, for lack of detailed information.
Thanks for the link!
