> 6. Keeps saturated fat to a minimum

In case anyone's interested, this recommendation is long outdated.

You should be keeping trans fats to a minimum and trying to increase your polyunsaturated fats, but saturated fat is neither here nor there.

Bingo. We all must point out this saturated fat fallacy when it shows up in society since it is so dominant and the belief in it leads to so many bad choices and outcomes.

It's not true, but I don't think it's disastrous or anything like that. Saturated fat is practically impossible to cut out completely, and our body can produce it anyway. The more dangerous belief IMO is that fat in general is bad.
