For KFC it’s all "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" as they continue to deny the simple truth that they have been using paper made by Asia Pulp and Paper (APP) for their packaging.  The company still won’t explain how rainforest fibre has been found in its products, nor admit that a UK supplier, St Neots, has been using paper from APP, a company notorious for pulping Indonesian rainforest, including habitat for the endangered Sumatran tiger.

Time for KFC to come clean on APP!

The company continues to deny it has a problem, so we think the time has come to show you just how misleading KFC’s public statement is.

You may never have heard of Cargill, but they are the largest privately-owned company in the world. They also happen to be one of the major culprits in the continuing destruction of the Amazon rainforest, driving deforestation to make room for soya plantations. That soya is then shipped out to Europe for animal feed.

As we revealed in early April, McDonald's have been implicated in the clearance of the Amazon rainforest to grow soya for animal feed and, thanks to the thousands of emails and letters you sent, they're talking to us about how they can get out of the Amazon.
