I've never shopped at Iceland but after reading this I may have a try. I hope this move gets them some extra custom then maybe others will follow suit.

I never knew that much about Palm oil, so thanks for that. We do use Iceland occasionally.

We've seen first hand here in Borneo just how big the palm oil industry is and the effects it is having on the rain forest.
