Fuck Nestle but also kitkat tastes good

[–] funkycarrot@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 1 year ago

All my homies buy the off-brand Kitkats that, despite the significantly lower price, use Fairtrade cocoa.

@lelgenio I hate how many companies are owned by nestle

Yes, boycott Nestle, but it isn't so easy, since almost all products in the Supermarkets belong to this company.

I dunno, Nestle owns basically the who's-who of terrible processed food and snack brands. Avoiding them isn't just good activism, it's good for your health, too.

Assuming you don't live in a food desert.... Or have a baby that requires more milk than you can produce.... Or have a pet that requires a particular diet....

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that as long as you don't buy processed foods in America you should be able to easily avoid Nestle?

[–] NattyNatty2x4 3 points 1 year ago

Around 3/4 of US adults are either overweight or obese; avoiding giving into the urge to eat processed foods is a problem all on its own

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Not only in America. Yes, you can avoid processed food, buying fresh food, but Nestle isn't only processed food, also water, almost all brands of coffee, sweets, cosmetics, animal food, etc.. If you live on a farm with a garden and chickens, with your own well and drink an herbal infusion instead of coffee, washing with your own soap. maybe you can avoid using Nestle products.
