I don't know of much research to show that if calories are in check, what level of saturated fat actually makes a difference. Where did this 30% fat number come from? Basically it came from a room where two groups were arguing and one group was arguing that it had to be below 10%. If you have enough physical activity that you're burning the calories you come in, it doesn't make much difference. If you're storing the calories that come in, then it makes more difference. I'm not sure the total fat amount is irrelevant.
