Get a Red Check - Let Us Check for You

What does the Red Check mean for me?

If you see the “We Checked for You” sticker on the window or door of a local restaurant or deli, that means that the Health Department has checked to make sure that the cooking oils, margarines, and butter substitutes used in preparing food at the establishment are all artificial trans fat free.  In accordance with FDA regulations, “trans fat free” means that there is no more than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving in a food item.
In addition, food service businesses that have earned this designation will be listed on our Health Department website.  This way, you and your family can make healthful choices when you are deciding where to eat out.
