These days you lose track of brands and the companies that own them . The big ones are buying out the small ones.
The US is buying out al of the UK's chocolate and cake brands etc. Cadbury's now belongs to Hershey's.

L'Oreal has been buying many small firms that have up until now cruelty free. However, L'Oreal is a big exporter to China where they still do animal testing.
 
Pretty soon, there will be just a few huge food companies. :(

This is the trend as all the big companies are buying out the small ones. When you buy a product you actually do not know who owns the firm.
Liz Earle used to be a small cosmetic company owned by a woman on the Isle of Wight in the UK.

It was renowned for it's products that were only plant based and cruelty free. As it was highly popular, L'Oreal bought it a couple of years ago. I have since then stopped buying their products as I don't like L'Oreal as they export to China where they still do animal testing.
