CARPINTERIA, Calif., Oct. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Coconuts are so delicious, healthy, nutritious – and popular – that soaring worldwide consumer demand has brought attention to the brutality of some farmers in Thailand who use – and sadly, often abuse – endangered macaque monkeys to harvest their coconuts. As a result, PETA, the world's largest animal rights organization, is calling for industry and consumers to stop buying all coconut milk produced in Thailand, period.

Key Points: 
  • "When we launched Native Forest® Organic Coconut Milk in 2002, it was the first certified organic coconut milk sold in North America," Dee explains.
  • "Over the following two decades, we have built a solid relationship with our Thai supplier partner, Sam, who has never used monkey labor on his farm.
  • Although Edward & Sons and their Native Forest brand use no monkey labor, Dee is concerned that efforts to stop monkey labor throughout Thailand have produced unanticipated consequences.
  • In related news, Edward & Sons' " Let's Do Organic " brand was also recommended by PETA as a humanely produced alternative that does not employ forced monkey labor to harvest its coconut products.
