If it were 'fully' hydrogenated, don't you think they would say so, to eliminate doubt? Yep. The fact that they don't speaks volumes.

I made this and used 1/2 of the recipe. I used a whole tub of cool whip but next time will cut it down to half. Didn't have any coconut extract and it was still very good.

I made this dessert last weekend for my husband and I. I cut the recipe in half. It was very good and easy to make. He was pleased with it.

I made this receipe the other day. It was very tasty and is something a diabetic can use as an exchange. It made a large dessert which would be great to take to a potluck or a get together.

Made this over the weekend using 1/2 container of lite cool whip folded into pudding mixture instead of dream whip.Flavor was really good but if using cool whip cut down on the amount of milk as mine was a little runny but not to much it was still really good.

This tastes wonderful. However, I found it to be a little runny, so the next time I make it, I am reducing the amount of milk by 1/2 cup. If it still is a little runny, I will reduce the amount of milk by another 1/2 cup. Over all, everyone that the dessert loved it.

I made this recipe while camping over the weekend. It was quick and easy to make (especially important since our only "refrigeration" was a cooler), and absolutely delicious. My fellow campers raved over the taste (even our most picky eater)!

Hydrogenated oils are not trans..only partially hydrogenated are. If an oil is fully hydrogentate, it is not "broken apart" which is what trans means.

Read your labels! Cool Whip Free has Hydrogenated oils which are TRANS FATS.
