Force companies to use the term 'palm oil' on products which contain it.
Our Y5 children are learning about the effects of deforestation caused by palm oil plantations.They found it impossible to identify which products contain palm oil because of the many other names used that don't contain the word 'palm'. They want clear labels to help people choose.
These are ALL ways of labelling palm oil: Vegetable Oil, Vegetable Fat, Palm Kernel, Palm Kernel Oil, Palm Fruit Oil, Palmate, Palmitate, Palmolein, Glyceryl, Stearate, Stearic Acid, Elaeis Guineensis, Palmitic Acid, Palm Stearine, Palmitoyl Oxostearamide, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sodium Kernelate, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Lauryl Lactylate/Sulphate, Hyrated Palm Glycerides, Etyl Palmitate, Octyl Palmitate, Palmityl Alcohol
