A brief description of the trans-fats avoidance program, policy, or practice:
Approximately seven years ago we switched to trans-fat free frying oil in all of our units. We also produce trans-fat free baked goods at our Food Services Support Facility. We avoid purchasing other products that contain trans-fats when possible. We use a Supply Chain Management Committee made up of our Dietician, Executive Chef, General Manager of our Food Service Support Facility, and our Food Safety Specialist/Asst. Buyer, to review all products purchased for use in our units. Our Council of Chefs also reviews, tastes, and records the information for future reference.
None
