A friend of mine posted a comment on my Facebook wall regarding this blog post. As a vegan who is also concerned about the environment, she asked where a butter-loving vegan might find a dairy-free spread without Palm Oil (palm oil plantations are wreaking havoc on the environment and wiping out endangered species). After some research, I have come to 2 conclusions:
Earth Balance, though they do use Palm Oil in their recipe, are sourcing their ingredients from sustainable operations, while also working to fund sustainable palm oil plantation development in Brazil and Malaysia.
Blue Bonnet Light, while using a few synthetic ingredients, is vegan AND Palm Oil-free. But only the Light.
So, pick your poison (literally). Or, find a new, guilt-free condiment!
