Following a video I saw about cows being separated from their calves, and having a dairy-intolerant grandson, I tried some of his non dairy stuff and found it fine ( especially the Oatly drink).
I also bought Vitalite ( non dairy, apparently), but see it contains palm oil, so can’t have that because of the orangutans! I’m already hunting for a palm oil free replacement for Nutella ( I hear there’s one called Mr Organic), so looks like I’ll need to do a big shopping rethink!

I don't know if any of these spreads are any good. You would need to read the ingredients to be sure they are Palm oil free.

Some good stuff there, and Morrison’s churros look fine.

I also avoid it whereever possible. It is incredible when you think of the amount of food stuffs that contain it. I can only assume because it is is cheap. Apart from ruining the planet and causing untold suffering.
