I get them too, maybe because I advertise as being veggie and vegan friendly! I don't mind though,as I am veggie, so not a problem for me:)

Oh don't get me wrong - some people are of course interested in the ingredients. Just there is a bit of a myth that you can't sell soap containing animal fat in the UK. If Paul believes in his product there is no reason he can't sell it if he can get over or round the SA issue here.

You can put forward tallow as a sustainable alternative to palm or olive as its a by product of an industry realistically going nowhere soon. It really is the original palm free soap  Grin

Like so many other product elements it's all down to the neighbourhood you're in. With all the stalls around here selling sausages I imagine there many who don't care about tallow!

I use tallow in my shave soap Smiley

I agree with everything you're saying Iulia. I'd rather tallow is used than palm, but as I am veggie I don't use any animal fats  :buttrf: :buttrf:
