What are two differences between saturated fats and and unsaturated fats?
Saturated fats - have only a single bond between carbon atoms, are typically solid at room temperature, and are called "fats"
Unsaturated fats - have one or more double bonds, typically are liquid at room temperature, are called "oils", and are usually healthier
