I was waiting to see what would happen when the big trans fat offenders ran into to new labeling law. This week, new label Pop [censored] appeared at my local store. Fortuneately, they still had some of the old ones on the shelf. The bottom line:
Old Pop [censored]
Total Fat = 5g each Saturated [censored] = 1g each
New Pop [censored]
Total Fat = 5g each Trans Fat = 0g each Saturated Fat = 2.5g each
So they took out the trans fat by cranking up the saturated fat! Not sure this is a win healthwise. Has anyone seen this effect on other products?

I find the '0g *each*' label rather funny.. how much does a 'pop [censored]' weight?

Yes. The trans fats helped shelf life and so will replacing trans fat with sat fat. Plus taste is a factor.
