(Canadian) BK Fries = most transfats

Quote:
Popular restaurant chain Burger King has gained the dubious distinction of having the highest levels of artery-clogging, obesity-inducing trans fats in its french fries, chicken nuggets and other meals compared with its fast-food peers, according to federal data released Thursday.
BK has the most transfats

Does anyone know the percentage of transfats US BKs have?

Why would anyone eat fries at Burger King when they have onion rings?

Anything from BK makes me physically ill... not sure why but it's been the case every single time I've eaten there even if it's been at different locations
