Exactly. And when I hear someone say "my doctor told me to avoid bad fats" I have a feeling that the doctor is giving him the opposite advice. "bad fats" = vegetable oils, trans fats. What people think are "bad fats" are high (good) cholesterol fats = meat
So by avoiding these "bad" fats, they are avoiding good cholesterol. And they will still be hungry, so what do they replace that caloric intake with? Usually more carbs. Or vegetables... all of which are cooked in what? shitty vegetable oil. Unless you're steaming everything.
