Kewpie Corporation Strengthens Animal Testing Ban
Kewpie Corporation, Asia’s largest producer of mayonnaise, has strengthened its ban against experiments on animals after hearing from PETA. The company’s previous animal testing policy only banned experiments on animals to establish dubious “health claims,” but the company contributed to curiosity-driven tests too, including injecting mice with cancer cells and chemicals before slicing them open. After PETA called Kewpie out on this cruelty, the company updated its policy to include all experiments on animals unless required by law, saving countless animals from gruesome deaths in laboratories.
