*Contains palm oil

[peta-accordion][peta-accordion-item title=”Read more”]

Although this product contains no animal-derived ingredients, it does contain palm oil. Orangutans and other animals are affected by the spread of palm oil plantations, and some people choose to avoid these products for this reason.

PETA supports the move toward truly sustainable palm oil operations that (among other things) use land that is already cleared, invest in increasing crop yield, and refrain from clearing land for new plantations.

Though some groups call for a boycott of palm oil products or companies that use palm oil, many environmental and animal-protection groups—including ones that focus on the well-being of primates displaced by palm oil plantations—agree that such a boycott would result in two major problems:

1. It would drive the price of palm oil down to a point where already-high demand is further increased.
2. It would promote the development of other tropical oils that are less efficiently grown than palm oil and would contribute to more deforestation and habitat loss.

To those who can avoid all tropical oils, we say: Go for it. Purchasing locally sourced, tropical-oil–free household products and foods is a great way to ensure ethical sustainability. We also encourage consumers to contact companies that have been dragging their feet on this important issue, urging them to make the commitment to using truly sustainable palm oil, and letting them know you won’t buy their products until they do so.

For more information on PETA’s policy on palm oil, please contact us.
