Product Information

However, the process to turn the liquid polyunsaturated fats into one which is spreadable but solid at room temperature – as needed for marg and spreads – involves partial hydrogenation: a process that creates trans fats, discovered in the 1990s to be worse for you than saturated fat.

The following spreads are all vegan, however, they are owned by companies that are not vegan: Biona (vegetarian), Plant Pioneers ( Sainsbury's), Pure ( Kerry Group), Naturli' ( Orkla), Suma (vegetarian), Violife Viospread ( Upfield/KKR), and Vitalite ( Saputo). Morrisons own-brand peanut butter: Morrisons peanut butter contains palm oil, which isn’t currently listed as sustainable – see ingredients here. Stretch Island Fruit Leathers and/or Fruit Strips are sometimes available at Costco and don’t contain palm oil. They only contain fruit. I also believe Good & Gather Organic Fruit Strips at Target do not contain palm ingredients. Though some contain Natural Flavors and don’t list the source. Ice Cream without Palm OilIngredients: Almonds, coconut, sunflower seeds, dates, pecans, strawberries, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, bananas, chia seeds, cinnamon, pure vanilla extract. Cereals that Now Contain Palm Oil Carry it with you, and before buying any new products — foods and self-care products — reference it. It’s a way to help you buy palm-free cereal and products. Once you know what to look for in cereals, it will be a lot easier to find them without palm oil. Vitamin A Palmitate contains palm oil Years ago, Purely Elizabeth was the first granola without palm oil I found. It was at Target. My son and I were thrilled! They use real ingredients you can recognize and pronounce. An analysis published in 2021 of 212 margarines and plant-based spreads, and 21 dairy butters across various European and North American markets, found that, due to the emissions produced by cattle, producing butter can have three and a half times the carbon emissions of plant-based spreads.

This peanut butter is a healthy choice which is high in protein and fiber while being low in saturated fat and sugar. As you can see from the table below, Morrisons smooth and crunchy peanut butter is almost nutritionally identical with the exception of sugar content which is slightly lower in the smooth version. One thing to note is that when I had food rules I never allowed myself peanut butter at all. I fell into that camp that we talked about of people who thought fat was bad.

Palm oil is commonly used in many food products, including peanut butter, as a cheap and easily accessible ingredient. But why is it used in the first place? Shortly after birth, dairy calves are separated from their mothers so that the milk the calf would otherwise consume can be sold. Male calves usually end up as meat. Female calves usually become dairy cows like their mother. Dehorning I’ve included this one because of the more basic style supermarket brand peanut butter, this one has the highest peanut content at 97% and is higher in protein and lower in saturated fat than most others.

Many fortified cereals contain palm oil ingredients. Many contain Vitamin A Palmitate, which is a synthetic vitamin manufacturers make with palm oil. Skippy Peanut Butter is another peanut butter with minimal ingredients. However, yet again palm oil is on their list of ingredients. Ingredients: We chose peanut butters that contain minimal ingredients and are free of additives, preservatives, added sugar, and other sweeteners. I like that the peanut butter is made with high-quality ingredients and ethical practices. Their commitment to no palm oil or harmful additives gives me peace of mind, knowing that I’m indulging in a healthy and eco-friendly treat. However, it is necessary to mention that the jar is smaller than I expected, and given the higher price point, it might not be within everyone’s budget. Natural peanut butters tend to only have two ingredients or less, with peanuts as the main ingredient. When they do have sugar or oil added, they tend to be natural alternatives such as cane sugar (instead of corn syrup) or palm oil (instead of hydrogenated oils). If you prefer a saltier peanut butter, look for kinds with only peanuts and salt added. But if you prefer your variety on the creamier, sweeter side that's easy to spread, your best bet would be the kind with an added sweetener, plus oil to prevent natural separation that would require stirring.An easy way to tell if palm oil is in your cereal is to look at how much Vitamin A is in it. If it’s 10% or greater, it most often contains synthetic Vitamin A.
