Trans fats can't be avoided?

I found this blog from an Australian news service today. Paula Goodyer dissects some information from the Food Standards Australia New Zealand report on trans fats. For Aussie producers, there are no compulsory labelling laws regarding the addition or quantities of trans fats in processed foods. PG gives some reasonably good info on what trans fats are and questions why we don't have laws to ensure we are informed about this ingredient when other developed countries do.

But it's this comment in the brief FAQ that got me:

"Is there a safe level of trans fats? According to the World Health Organisation, there's no safe level - but it's impossible to avoid them altogether because they're found naturally in beef and dairy products, says (dietitian Susan Anderson, of the Australian Heart Foundation)."

Hmmm, so how does that make them impossible to avoid? A natural diet which abstains from processed foods, meat and dairy products is not feasible?

It is true that trans fats appear in many vegan products. They are necessary to produce things like vegan margarines, cheeses etc without animal products. But does this mean they can't be avoided? No, it doesn't. I know plenty of people who don't eat that stuff, precisely because they want to avoid trans fats.
