Getting chocolate bars in our trick-or-treat bags was like bricks of gold at Halloween! It's fun to keep those traditions alive, but what's really scary is if your chocolate is made with non-sustainable palm oil. Brands of candy like Butterfinger, M&Ms, and Snickers are just a few of the responsible candy choices to buy and give during this Halloween season when considering sustainable palm oil-based products. Orangutans, tigers, gorillas, and other wildlife and the forests they live in are threatened by non-sustainable palm oil production in Indonesia, Malaysia, Africa, and South America. It's our responsibility to find sustainable conservation choices to support wildlife, forests, and people. Check here for more palm oil friendly candy choices https://lnkd.in/gSVVcqF9
