Ep 6 Palm Oil: It's Aping Us Crazy
Manage episode 233296733 series 2503259
In this episode, we address the issue of 'palm oil'. As a controversial ingredient, we want to understand where it comes from, what it is used for, what products contain it and exactly why it's got a bad reputation. Palm oil makes up 35% of the vegetable oil market, but what about it is actually bad, and can we do anything about it?
Please share, rate, review and subscribe to help us on our mission to open up the conversation on sustainability.
