The Coconut Collaborative

The Coconut Collaborative Natural Unsweetened 350g

Your product is delicious environmentally friendly and beautiful to look at. swapping to glass and would make it a perfect product with zero guilt. Plus we can keep the jars and think of you!

Nomo

NOMO Deliciously Creamy Choc Bar 85g

I appreciate the effort gone to include many types of people’s dietary differences and I appreciate the steps made to be more sustainable however I think more needs to be done, more recycling or supporting of sustainability research.

I would overall recommend their products as they are tasty and their company are taking steps in the right direction unlike so many others.

Taylors Of Harrogate

Yorkshire Tea 160 Original 656G

Makes an excellent cup of tea (brew) ! Packaging is great and really promotes Yorkshire dales at its best. Love the fact that the Company is conscientious of working with their suppliers in an ethical and responsible way! Plus  purchasing Yorkshire Tea guarantees me a great brew when I need one! 

Quorn

Quorn Pieces 300g

Goòd product. Needs to be packaged in recyclable packaging.

Please take the plastic out of the bag. I'm sure you can find a way. There was no leccy in bags years ago! 😁

Oatly

Tasty product. Would appreciate more eco-forward efforts. 

Quorn 24 Crispy Nuggets 476g

Please make your packaging recycle or better yet plastic free 

Sainsbury's

Sainsbury's Love Your Veg! Sweet Potato Katsu Curry with Sticky Jasmine Rice 400g

I appreciate the direction Sainsbury’s has taken in supporting sustainability however I think they can do a bit more. That way they can be a trusted and staple brand for the sustainable community

Teapigs

Teapigs Peppermint Leaves 15 Biodegradable Tea Temples 30g

Absolutely love them, lots of thought clearly gone into how to get lots of sustainability for the product. 

Marmite

Marmite Yeast Extract 250G

You need to be transparent about the impact of all your products on the environment, 
it’s in a glass jar that’s good but the old metal lid was easier to recycle.
We need to know where it’s made, so we can decide for ourselves whether or not the food miles are acceptable.

Swizzels

Swizzels Double Dip Orange and Cherry Flavour Fizz Dips with a Swizzelstick 19g

I appreciate the effect the company have on local communities however little is done by them in regards to sustainability in either charity support or manufacturing ect I think more should be done by them to help the community of the future

Thanks Oatly CEO person. Can I have a job? 

Hehe hehe 

I love it!! Packaging is clear, the CO2 footprint is an amazing addition and it's delicious! It may be worth doing a powdered/dehydrated version to save space/packaging/weight and therefore the environment! 

Nakd

Nakd Bakewell Tart Fruit & Nut Bar 35g

I would support this brand over others who do nothing to be sustainable however I think they ought to be more sustainable to stand out from other sustainable brands

Amazing product 
I love the fact that carbon footprint of the product is included on the label 


Graze

Graze Smoky BBQ Crunch Punnet 31g

Graze has taken many steps towards a sustainable future however more needs to be done to combat the issues we as a society face. 

More clarity on their website in terms of recycling or a time frame of goals would be helpful also supporting other sustainable efforts would improve their products and brands effectively

I love quorn and cook and eat their products a lot. Unfortunately sometimes favourites disappear from stock. Maybe try to change the plastic packaging? 

Nairn's

Nairn's Organic Oatcakes 250g

I was sceptical at first, but I actually like your product and your marketing. I would like to know more about how you source your raw materials, how you treat you staff and where you invest your profits.

Kind

Kind Dark Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt 40g

They have mentioned sustainability and are involved with communities however more clarity and sustainable efforts need to be made by them

I love it on toast and have been eating since I was a small child. I love the way the entire product is the made from the waste from Guiness

Propercorn

Propercorn Sweet & Salty 30G

Your product tastes great but I refuse to buy anything in packaging that is not recyclable. Please think of the planet. 

Alpro

Alpro Soya Original Drink 1L

Use less water in producing soy milk, please! 

Love it, Tetra Paks are recyclable and the product itself is brilliant, your customer services are fabulous - could just do without the plastic ring pull & lid.

Green & Black's

Green & Black's Organic Milk Chocolate Bar 90g

Nothing more to say, its organic chocolate,  it is perfect already

Can you please step up to make all your vegetarian products vegan? All packaging should be recyclable as this stops consumers buying your brand.

Being plant based is amazing. bring it a next step and make this a glass/ reuse-able container!! 

I love marmite. I have eaten it all my life. I love to know what impact its production has on the environment. I would like the people who do all the jobs involved in getting it to me are treated and paid fairly. People and the the future of our planet matter to me.



The Groovy Food Company

The Groovy Food Company Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil 500ml

I am very happy with this brand of Coconut Oil. I mainly use it for cooking - stir fries to fish. I also use it for my facial skin and for my hair. It can walk and chew gum at same time. 

Tastes lovely, cardboard packaging is a big plus, cruelty free is amazing x

Heinz

Heinz Beanz 150g

Sustainable, ethical, thoughtful, caring and very delicious

Natural, no additives, tasty but does not dominate, essential for cooking unadulterated dishes. Great product in resusable glass jar. Put cooked food in it and freeze! Use to store food in fridge! And much more.


Love the product but the packaging could be better. Reusable or glass bottles or even no plastic just cut the corner. Thanks for making we love it. 

Black Sheep Brewery

Black Sheep Brewery Ale 500ml

Love Blacksheep, but when are beer brands going to introduce a return and refill bottle scheme?

I love the flavour and texture.  Keep working to improve sustainability. 


Like Meat

Like Meat Organic Soya Based Like Chicken Bites 180g

Stop chopping down trees in the Amazon Rainforest in order to grow your disgusting tasteless soya.  

For a tin of beans it is 2 portions which is not much compared to the energy needed to extract, manufacture or recycle that amount of metal.

Ginsters

Ginsters Quorn Vegan Steak Pasty 180g

very tasty, great for vegans. i wish the packaging was recyclable. 

Thank you for this glass jar of tastyness you are setting an amazing example!!!

PROPERCORN Sweet & Salty Popcorn 90g

gimme it but in packaging that won’t be on the planet for yonks pls 

More yummy and better for the environment than dairy, which makes staying plant based easier

Minor Figures

Minor Figures Oat Milk 1 Litre

I think things need to be more clear in terms of how sustainable this brand is

Great product, would be better if all of one material that is easily recycled

Used to love the product but am now vegan so it would be even better if we could see all Quorn product become vegan as it was once stated they would be

Love Oatly but we’ve stopped buying it as due to changes in our councils recycling scheme (and most councils nationally) they are no longer recycling tetrapaks, so they were going straight to landfill. Switched to Innocent with recycled/recyclable plastic bottles.

I love Oatly 😍 but wish it would last a bit longer once opened, 5 days isn't quite enough if it's just one person getting through a carton, and I feel wasteful throwing it out with there still being some left! Other than that, I LOVE the fun little infographics and quotes on the sides and the whole sustainability of the product is great! 

Walkers

Doritos Cool Original Grab Bag 55 G

I think you could try alot more to make your packaging and production more eco friendly and also get rid of all the disgraceful palm oil you use.

Alpro Oat Unsweetened 1L

Alpro have put lots of effort into making products sustainable, I wish that on the website it explained in a summary most of the steps they’ve made to sustainability so the consumers can see why to choose this sustainable brand over another one

KitKat

KITKAT 2 Finger Milk Chocolate Biscuit Bar 20.7g 16 Pack

Use sustainable palm. Better sugars and compostable wrappers all will be well. Maybe a veggie/vegan range!?
