There might be miniscule amounts of trans fats in pork, the result of feeding the pig a ration which includes trans fats. Trans fats are normally only produced by hydrogenation.
Trans fats are unsaturated fats which have have same/simlar stucture to saturated fats therefore act as saturated fats. Trans fats are present in foods which contain vegetable fat which has been hydrograted partly to me soild. Pizzas can contain trans fats due to how the fat in the pizza base is made or trans fats naturally found in cheese. Trans fat levels should not go over 2g per person per day therefore having some trans fats is not too bad however you should limit the amount of trans fat you from.
Trans fats are hydrogenated unsaturated fats and they are supposed to be the worst fats there are for your health. Unsaturated fats are healthy fats and saturated fats and trans fats are unhealthy fats. Trans fats are often added to processed foods to extend the shelf life. There are no such fats as cis fats. There are certainly cis fatty acids and trans fatty acids and the difference between the two is in the hydrogen atoms positions and one could be regarded as an isomer of the other. All fats are basically triglycerides which means glycerol triesterified with 3 fatty acids.
MOINOSATURATED
Yes, but trans are much worse.
No, saturated fats and trans fats are different. Saturated fat increases low-density lipoprotein, which is bad for you. Trans fats do the same thing, but also lower high-density lipoprotein, which is good for you. Trans fats are a lot worse.
Trans fats are to be avoided for proper dietary measures. The RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) for trans fats is less than 1 percent of the caloric daily intake
No.
Trans fats are made when manufactures add hydrogen to the fat molecules in vegetable oils.

Trans Fats
With organic compounds, you can have carbon atoms bonded together with single bonds, double bonds, and triple bonds. If all of the carbon bonds in a fat are single bonds, the fat is saturated. If one of the bonds is a double bond, it is mono-unsaturated. If more than one bond is unsaturated, it is polyunsaturated. Sometimes industries add hydrogen to a double bond and make it hydrogenated. They can add it in one of two ways. They can make it a trans fat or they can make it a cis fat. Nature also hydrogenates fats. Nature makes cis fats. Your body has no problem with cis fats. Nature does not make trans fats. Your body has problems with trans fats. Industries can produce cis fats but find it easier to produce trans fats. Making trans fats illegal will force them to make cis fats.
