I believe the only truly bad fat is trans-fat.

I also bhere is no convincing evidence that says high saturated fats or high cholesterol foods actually impact your bodily cholesterol.

I too lean towards Frank's list, but I will eat just about any meat in small portions. I do not generally buy low fat products.

As to the original point, I think replacing refined carbs with anything is good. More and more I am choosing fruits and veggies over fats. I am in weight loss mode. Fat's high calories are on my watch list.
