_No_ it does not. Trans fats are a completely artificial creation originally thought to avoid weight gain because it's specifically _not_ butter. They don't exist naturally in any butter.
- DanBC 10y agoThe Google Instant answer for the question [does butter contain trans fat?] says 100 g butter contains 3.3 g of trans fat. http://imgur.com/a/i7qw0 http://imgur.com/a/i7qw0 Trans fats sometimes occur naturally in food. They're created by bacteria in an animal's stomach. Trans fats were nothing to do with weight loss. Trans fats were used because they're cheap and have long shelf life.
- Xdafjgneoiwe 10y agoYes they do contain trans fats - just not the same kind - and recent research shows that they are probably just as damaging as the artificial creations. See my comment to the other poster.
