Miss Queenie’s, Latest Fast-Food Franchise to Eliminate Trans FatsBy Evelyn Range, staff reporter New Sun Times jOn Monday, Miss Queenie’s, a multinational restaurant chain, announced plans to completely eliminate trans fats from all items on its menu. The news is welcomed by consumer groups who have been pushing fast-food franchises to stop cooking with ingredients that contain harmful trans-fatty acids. Miss Queenie’s is now the fifth franchise in the country to make this move. It follows in the footsteps of other popular national fast-food companies, including Hoagie Town and Pizza Palace, who reported slight increases in sales after making the switch. The public relations director for Miss Queenie’s，William Bueller, said at a press conference, “Our chain of restaurants will completely eliminate trans fats from the food it serves by the end of May.” He also went on to state that the usage of refined sugar in menu items had been reduced by 12 percent.Industry experts see the trend as a continuing one, as consumer pressure forces the food servicesector to offer healthier options. Fiona Llindt, director of the consumer advocacy group Consu-Data,said in a telephone interview that she expects other restaurant chains to follow the precedent thathas been established. “I don’t think it will be long until we also see the top three fast-food ;franchises in the country do the same. It’s becoming a matter of economics to them. If they don’t provide people with healthier options, then their customers will go elsewhere.”
