Message definition (Fat)
In nature, unsaturated fatty acids generally have double bonds in [[cis–trans isomerism|''cis'' configuration]] (with the adjacent C–C bonds on the same side) as opposed to ''trans''. Nevertheless, [[Trans fat|''trans'' fatty acids]] (TFAs) occur in small amounts in meat and milk of [[ruminant]]s (such as cattle and sheep), typically 2–5% of total fat. Natural TFAs, which include [[conjugated linoleic acid]] (CLA) and [[vaccenic acid]], originate in the [[rumen]] of these animals. CLA has two double bonds, one in the ''cis'' configuration and one in ''trans'', which makes it simultaneously a ''cis''- and a ''trans''-fatty acid.
