We can confirm that the whey powder in the cheese powder is of animal origin, this animal is cow. This product is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans as the cheese powder was produced using animal (cow) rennet.
We have updated the packaging for this product to now state Gluten as an Allergen. This is based upon the most up to date information we have from the supplier of the Soya. The gluten is present at a very low level up to 100 parts per million. This change took place at the beginning of April 2012.
Palm oil has become a popularly used vegetable oil in not only foods but also in soaps, cosmetics and fuels. One of the many reasons it is widely used is that it produces at between 4 -10 times more oil than other vegetables.
Removing palm oil from products would be a very short term solution to improving the social and ethical issues associated with its use. The palm oil would be replaced by other vegetable oils that would require much larger amounts land to grow the same quantity. This would create similar issues but potentially of a greater magnitude than seen with the use of palm oil.
As a responsible manufacturer we recognise this and by choosing our Granose products you are sure that it contains RSPO certified palm oil. The use of certified sustainable palm oil through the RSPO will help support their global aim of making sustainable palm oil the norm.
