A brief description of the trans-fats avoidance program, policy, or practice:

CDS is focusing on the elimination of trans-fats. CDS has changed the liquid frying shortening and is sampling griddle shortenings. The department has changed its daily French fry, biscuits (which accounted for an 1,800 lb reduction in trans-fats), and cookies to trans-fat free and are changing other fried items and meats as options become available.
