Fat is also known as a triglyceride. It is made up of a molecule known as glycerol that is connected to one, two, or three fatty acids. Glycerol is the basis of all fats and is made up of a three-carbon chain that connects the fatty acids together. A fatty acid is just a long chain of carbon atoms connected to each other. There are two kinds of fats, saturated and unsaturated. Unsaturated fats have at least one double bond in one of the fatty acids.
