If someone wants to eat transfats, they should be allowed to.
This I will agree with.

This is a personal choice. I can order something from the menu that is good for me, or I can order something that is bad. Or I can go to a different place. If I'm eating out at a restaurant, I don't expect that the food is going to be good for me, anyway.

If they want to require restaurants to put the calorie count on the menu, I can deal with that (although I still don't completely agree with it). But demanding that they serve certain items, or don't include fats/sodium/carbs etc. in the food is ridiculous.
