Dear OREO Luvers,

For those who can't read Mandarin, here is the translated version of the
article attached below:

OREO CONTAINING TRANS FAT BRINGS DAMAGES TO HEALTH

An attorney from California filed a lawsuit against Krafts, stating that
OREO produced by the company not only causes damages in health, but also
dishonestly promote their products; requesting the company to halt the
sales of OREO in the market.

OREO contains hydrogenated oil or Trans fats, to prolong the storage of
the biscuit, but at the mean time increase the consumption of BAD
CHOLESTEROL, increasing the possibility of diabetes and heart disease.

INCREASE IN CONSUMPTION OF CHOLESTEROL

Although the research on Trans Fats affecting health has not been
concluded, the national institute of science research states that any
amount of Trans Fats consumed is not safe.

Thx & best rgds,
