About Time!
This really is the answer to the nation's obesity problem and poor diet where the onus for such is taken up by the food suppliers themselves.Vitamin D to be added to M&S bread

This is an incredibly important step in my opinion.

But from the late 1950's "trans" fats and hydrogenated oils which contain trans fats were described as "not generally safe"............

Re: About Time!
I prefer to get my vitamins as naturally as possible TBH so sunshine is where I will get my Vit D.Personally I wouldn't get too excited about any supermarket bread because they will all be loaded with additives, chemicals and enrichment products. As I have said on other threads, the ONLY ingredients needed for good healthy bread are:
Flour, Water, Yeast and a little salt plus plenty of TIME.
Making your own bread is infinitely more healthy than buying any supermarket bread whether it has added vitamins or not.
The nation's obesity problem is unlikely to be solved by anything as simple as bread. The solution requires 2 things imo:
1. A complete acceptance by the populous that they can NOT rely on anyone except themselves to properly research EVERYTHING they put into their mouths, and the willingness to do such research.
2. A complete re-hash of the food labelling laws such that all labels are complete, unambiguous and honest.
Sadly, item 2 is not going to happen any time soon because the large conglomerates who supply our foods (or their base ingredients) jointly run the world along with other corrupt powers. So they will continue to hide, mislead and mis-inform via food labelling in order to sell foods which suit their profit making enterprises.
Thus item 1 is what counts. We must take nothing for granted and make a conscious choice to eat natural foods and shun processed and unhealthy foods. Diets are a waste of time and simply do not work (as a permanent fix for weight problems). Only by making the choice to eat healthy natural foods can we return to a healthy weight.
