Unsaturated fat is found in vegetables, and saturated fat is found in most food like chips, cookies, ect.. Saturated fat usally creates fat on a body that's why it is better to eat unsaturated fat. So a basic answer is saturated fat is unhealthy and puts fat on your body, and unsaturated fat is better to eat.

Answer 2: What is above is true, and I will add that if you think about the word "saturated" it means that something is completely full -- so if you were looking at a saturated fat diagram, every C-H bond would be full. On an unsaturated fat, there would be double bonds where carbons would bond back to carbons -- basically the more H's you see in the diagram, the more saturated the fat is. I am attaching a diagram -- look down under "related links".
