PETA Persuades Fuji Oil Holdings to Ban Animal Tests

After discussions with PETA, Fuji Oil Holdings Inc.—a leading producer of oils, fats, confectionery ingredients, and soy—confirmed that it will no longer fund, conduct, or commission tests on animals in order to make health claims about its products. In experiments previously funded and conducted by the company, rats and mice were starved, force-fed, and injected with harmful chemicals before their necks were broken and they were dissected.
