Rejected petition Identify palm oil in all products sold in the UK. One standard ingredient name.

Palm oil is used in many products and is named in many different ways. It would be useful to have one way of identifying it. The public need to make an informed choice easily. Palm oil, due to the demand of this cheap product, is contributing to climate change by encouraging deforestation.
