Wildlife-friendly

This term indicates that the ingredients used in the food were produced in a way that supports biodiversity and protects wildlife habitats. It often means that farming practices were used that minimize harm to local ecosystems and animal populations.

Manufacturers use this term to appeal to consumers who prioritize ethical and sustainable sourcing. It is often found on products like cookies, baked goods, and other packaged foods where consumers are increasingly interested in the origin and production methods of their food.

This is a marketing term related to food production practices, not a food ingredient itself. Therefore, it does not have a regulatory status as a food additive, nor has it been evaluated by bodies like JECFA or EFSA. There are no known health implications associated with this term, as it describes farming methods rather than a substance added to food.
