I also want to concur that certain saturated fats are indeed veryyy good for you. Like what Tibetan said-- grassfed meat/dairy is very good for you. Bad fats are man-made fats like vegetable oil, cottonseed oil, etc. They are highly carcinogenic.
Little known fact about good saturated fats: They're a strong antioxidant and flush bad metals/impurities from your body like mercury. And are a good source of Vitamin A, which is a fat-soluble vitamin and real vit A cannot be aquired from plants. Only animal fats and foods. (some people can convert the plant version of Vit A over to real Vit A (retinol) but many cannot.)
