Palm oil and Portland - what danger?

10:31am Tuesday 9th March 2010

MIKE Biggs says he will fight the palm oil plant (Your Say, March 6). That’s very commendable.

I am waiting to hear the proof that it is going to damage our health as I understand this will be the first one of its kind.

Where are you getting the proof? I have been cooking with oil for many years, as have loads of people. I haven’t been ill – or is palm oil different to cooking oils.

Palm oil is in lots of things so why don’t we stop eating them if we are all worried about where it comes from.

The march was supported by some 400 to 500 people, there are thousands living on Portland so that is not the majority.
