Pure Dairy Free Olive Spread

I have used various vegan dairy free margarines over the year, but since being diagnosed allergic to soya and sunflower products, I had to find an alternative.

I struggled to find a vegan margarine not containing either sunflower or soya, but luckily the Pure dairy free range by Kerry Foods also has an olive spread, which, as with the others, is Vegan Society approved.

It contains added vitamins A,D,E and B12 which helps supplement a vegan diet, rapeseed, olive and palm oil, which is not shown as being from sustainable sources, so I have asked Kerry Foods about this and this is their response:

"Kerry Foods is committed to using sustainable Palm Oil. As members of the 'Round Table for Sustainable Palm Oil' (RSPO), we are fully aware of the ecological and social impacts of deforestation and share the concern about the long-term consequences of this. With our customers, who have similar plans, we encourage moving to sustainable oil as soon as possible. As a business, we only source our Palm Oil from RSPO members and are working closely with them to ensure that in the future, our Palm oil is economically, socially and environmentally sustainable, with our ultimate goal being to achieve 100% fully sustainable Palm Oil sourcing throughout our supply chain by 2016"

The colour is a lovely yellow colour,  it spreads well and is perfect for baking, cooking and spreading on hot toast or crumpets, so I always make sure I have a tub in the fridge.
