Love that chocolate Haagen-Dazs ice-cream? But what about the way its makers treat their farmers? How about KitKat and the way its production impacts the environment? In a campaign to push big companies towards more ethical sourcing, international development group Oxfam is asking people to think about food producers' attitudes towards issues such as climate change and workers' rights the next time they dig into their favorite treat. The report, first compiled last year, looks at transparency, women's rights, farmers' rights and land, water and climate sustainability. |

... ethically. Apparently. Good for them!
How ethical is my food company? Don't know, don't care.
I actually don't buy a lot of food from any of those companies. Maybe some Twinings tea, on occasion. I'm just not big on most "convenience" foods, it appears. (And the ones I do buy in most cases I'm not entirely certain who ultimately owns them...)
