NEW YORK (AP) - After two years of secret taste tests, KFC said Monday it would stop frying chicken in artery-clogging trans fats, but New York City restaurants being urged to do the same say it's not so easy.
KFC's announcement, which won praise from consumer advocates, came an hour ahead of a public hearing on a proposal that would make New York the first U.S. city to ban the unhealthy artificial fats.
Industry leaders dished up a plateful of reasons why such a plan shouldn't be adopted in the nation's restaurant capital.
