Is that cupcake making you aggressive?

Cupcakes, evil? Possibly, if they contain transfats — or rather they could be causing you to be evil:

Eating trans fats could be making you be irritable and aggressive, says new research published in the journal PLoS ONE.

(and, in case you forgot, trans fats can increase your risk of heart disease)

Also, something I was reminded of today: when grocery shopping, check the ingredients for partially hydrogenated oil — if it’s listed there, that food’s got trans fatty acids in it.
