Rejected petition Lower the cost of food intolerance products
Products designed not to contain certain ingredients, described as ‘free from’ products are so much more expensive compared to normal products. Eg. A loaf of normal bread can cost 50p whereas a gluten free loaf can cost as much as £3! It is the same across all of the intolerance products.
More details
A person cannot choose what their body can and can’t tolerate! Just because particular peoples bodies cannot tolerate particular ingredients does not mean companies should benefit and over charge people for these! It is unfair.
