Vegan Nutella, made with chickpeas and rice syrup, to hit shelves - Lemmy.World

As noted in the article, Nutella is made with palm oil, whose farming often results [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_and_environmental_impact_of_palm_oil] in habitat loss for animals such the Bornean orangutan, which is critically endangered. Ferrero claims they have a chain for palm oil such that it doesn’t come from devastating monoculture plantations, but whether you think that’s enough or even if it’s true at all is unclear. I don’t personally take palm oil as part of my diet as I see it as something I can practicably cut out to reduce harm, but whether this is vegan or just plant-based is something you’ll have to decide.
