Nestlé is goddamn evil, I haven't bought a single product from them in years
CajunGypsyStudios
Yes! A truly despicable company, don't buy if you can and that includes their pet food brands!

Fuck nestle

Here's a list of alternatives to Nestle. https://www.lakotalaw.org/resources/nestle-alternatives
rssplowman
I guess I’m at least a year too late to start hating Nestle. As my dad always said “Better late than never.” so fuck those fucking fucks.
ratfinkfuck
This seems like the right time to once again remind folks that Nestle has been caught owning slaves. I don't mean the tricksy modern way-->
ratfinkfuck
where it's a legal gray area and technically not literal slavery.. I mean Nestle corporation owns human beings as property.
tinyfootprints
This makes me happy that I had a brief fling with the wife of a Nestle exec.
MetaUnstable
When a non-US company behaves exactly like a US company it gets all the hate by the US people.
pleaseconsiderthatImightbejoking
both of you to think we know the difference.
Colopty
Elaboration on the whole "misinformed mothers, leading to infant deaths" thing: They impersonated health care workers to do so.

Anyone else hear that? I think I just heard God tellnig Satan to dig out a new circle in hell to accommodate a new low.
IamNICE124
As a Michigander, this hits home. They steal our lake water, and then sell it back to us in horrible, plastic bottles. Fuck Nestle.
DocTanner
Is it a thing that is required for survival? Then it's a human goddamn right. Food, water, and shelter are the absolute bare minimum rights.

With that eye, he could be a bond villain. Also with that everything-else-about-him.

as a swiss guy... fuck i hate this company sooooo much.. has nothing todo with our swissvalues
tobs3n89
as another swiss guy: nestle, sepp blatter, ... we have our list of global criminals too, unfortunately. sorry, world.
martycos
Nestle is an evil company even by the shitty standards we hold companies to.
Forgotmyoldaccountbutohwell
Fuck nestle, they're one of the worst big companies out there.

This is a great doc about water privatization. i hope they make it free to watch again. . https://vimeo.com/ondemand/uptothelastdrop

What's what eye in Naruto? That fucking guy has that evil Naruto eye.
MasterChristopher
Well there's several, but this particular one is probably the Rinnegan.

And let's NOT forget that Nestlé was ay-ok with doing business with the Nazis. So was all of Switzerland. Look it up, it's truly horrific.
madeyoulookXD
And coke, dont forget coke, fanta is for nazis
MjolnirCat
In defense of Coke; Fanta exists specifically because corporate withdrew shipments of ingredients to axis powers during the war.
MetaUnstable
So did many US companies (like IBM). But unlike the US, Switzerland had to cooperate. Otherwise everyone would have gotten "liberated"
thatmorningcoffee
I don’t understand how companies get away with this kind of shit.
abraxa
Ignorance and indifference. Local and state politics are boring, so why engage? Better to buy a new TV to watch sports on.
YannYacobi
Regarding the baby formula - impersonated officials, gave free formula which relied on clean water, mothers stopped producing breast milk ¹
tightsarenotpants
That's so shitty.
YannYacobi
withdrew free formula and water, families forced to buy Nestlé or use contaminated water..... lots of dead babies. ²

Here you go @op, made this for your collection. Hopefully you get it before Nestle finds you

Ah, this must be where we nod and upvote and pretend we don't use Nestle products.

Stop buying bottled water at all anyway. It's so much more expensive than tap water and is filling our planet with garbage.
lurker5000
And people don’t realize that most bottled water is just filled with tap water anyway. Bottled water is a scam.
tightsarenotpants
I have a case in each car we own and that's it. We drive through deserts alot.i would fill larger containers but it's a pain to keep...
tightsarenotpants
2...the water fresh.
rudejohn
Keeping a case for emergencies is fine, I know people who go through a case every few days because that's all they drink at home.
tightsarenotpants
Yea that's lame. Our cases last a long time. We only break into them on trips when our nalgenes run dry and it's inconvenient to refill
tightsarenotpants
Luckily we haven't had a real emergency yet on the road where we relied on them
glitchead
I wish i could stand the taste of my tap water. It tastes like metal, dirt, and sadness.
MyFavColorIsGlitter
You're tasting the nutrients and minerals.
ellimay
Or runoff from the strip mine down the road

Speaking for my tap, not necessarily glitchead

It is a lot cheaper to buy a pitcher with a filter than to buy bottles.

Water is a human right. I'm so sick and tired of evil and greed in this world. We need a new crusade to purge these scum.
mbox
A necessity is not a right, you can't lay free claim to a resource that someone worked to obtain because you feel it is a right.
LoverInTheRain
"Being tired of evil and greed, that idea as a human right is extreme." That'll be 199.99$ ~ your Nestlé
BiggestofBears
Food too. We have MORE than enough to go around. But we have roughly 9 million people dying from starvation annually.
dootdootiamgroot
Care to join my vigilante group I haven't started. We will use extreme violence against extreme greed.
InsanityCrab
I'll join, I'm baby face man, a grown man with the face of a baby, my super power is to make my opponents mildly uncomfortable.

We need a new plague. Wait...
BaconAndBoobsAndBackflips
Plague historically widen the economical gap, not reduce it
Nelmathel
Except for the black death. Gave the peasantry some breathing room, even the King couldn't set prices of service when your the last smith.
ProfessorChaos
And then the crusaders take their place and become the new 'scum'. People are just trash when money/power is involved. It will never end.

I boycotted them 2 years ago ish, that's when I found out all their evil shit. I miss rolos but that's it. I can make my own rolos.

Ah shit really? Thought I was doing so well avoiding their products. At least I know now I guess.

I just remembered they bought Ovaltine my childhood chocolate milk
ChopDaffodil
Can you help me understand how to do this? Like is there a big list of nestle stuff and companies and whatnot?
ThePunishersVengefulBrother
Purina, Alpo, Fancy Feast, Beneful, Candies, Perrier, Nestea, Poland Springs, S. Pellegrino, Gerber, Maybelline, Stouffer's, Hot Pockets...
TheSiskoIsOfBajor
I do my best to avoid their products. It's really challenging, bc they own so damn much.
Freakydarling93
I know. Absolute bastards.
jamiedBreaker
Any advice? I tried avoiding Monsanto back in the day, failed, and felt miserable about it. Educated now, but w no better protocol in place
tightsarenotpants
Don't feel bad about failing to avoid Monsanto. Their products were (are) used pretty extensively by farmers. You would never know by labels
Freakydarling93
I just read labels and if I don't know who owns something I Google it.
getridofTheSeaword
There’s an app called Goods Unite Us that tells you what brands support which political party and if they support or oppose citizens united.
PunIshErnest
That sounds like a tribalizing app, but also useful one.
sanguinesssus
I’ve not had a Nestle product since 2010. I do miss Nestle Crunch, though.
Freakydarling93
Ooooh. Good call. You could make your own? Rice crispies in chocolate. Similar but not exact.
idontknowhowtoimgurverywell
Guarantee if you ate one again you wouldn’t miss it. Tasked like chocolate flavored wax paper with styrofoam bits.
Freakydarling93
I think the ones we have over here are a different food standard. It definitely didn't taste bad when I had one last.

LilaaK
How do you make your own rolos?
Freakydarling93
Make chewy caramel balls then dip in chocolate. You could probably get a silicone mould of a similar shape.
sanguinesssus
Make the mold look like droplets. Then sell them as a rollo substitute
LilaaK
Thanks!
ANALPISS
If you ever make a tutorial, please tag me!! Rolos are my mum's favorite, she'd love homemade!
Redraz2021
That sounds neat.
Freakydarling93
If I do, I will tag you. I don't make them often because caramel can bugger off.
ANALPISS
Thank you!! I would imagine caramel is hard to work with haha

Sign me up, too. I think this whole place would go nuts for a homemade Rolos post!

TavisMcNamara
You cannot fathom the amount of deaths, pain, suffering, and political damage nestle has caused. It is literally unfathomable. I am ->

Usually very reserved in these things... But the CEO of nestle is the guy who says it's okay and tells them to do it. We're talking ->

Would you feel the same way about Hitler?

I didn't. I wished him blind

Holy hell, this guy's second to last comment was 4 years ago.

upsidedownhead
ProphetOfPhil
He's a shit person alright but I'd prefer proper justice to be served rather than bodily harm.
Zyrixion
I mean, yes, that's what we said. Anything short of death is not proper justice for what he's done.
SkogensKung
imafarmer
Responsible for the death of thousands... a little bodily harm is fair I say
flowofsilence
Justice is pretty selective, since controlled by humans and humans are assholes. Pretty easy to buy “justice” when you are reach as him.
imafarmer
We are at a point in time where wishing evil men dead is the right thing
LuffyFett
And they publicly flaunt what they do evil things because somehow they twisted the law to somehow protect them
FionaShrekDonkey
Upvote because still more people need to know this! Stop buying products from this company!

Of note, this also doesn't mention a huge number of companies nestle also has their hand in. It's near-impossible to fully boycott them
silverfoxxflame
That's not to say don't try; the more you get away from the more closely related things the better. but their market presence is insane.
DrSparks417
Aww sad panda.. they own Haagen-Dazs.. welp. Time to change my ice cream selection.
Mamaof2QTs
ZOMG it’s so good, but one of the highest fat/calorie contents. Just eat it on special occasions like your birthday.
SpecialAgentPinkfinger
That makes me sad too. I dont normally get haagen-dazs. But my favorite ever is their coffee ice cream.

Yea now that you mention it. Always assumed it was General Mills.
Navrodel
Note the pet section. They're selling bad formula for babies in 3rd world countries, just think how much less they care for your pet's food.
AlaskanX
I’m inclined to think they’re more concerned about rich Americans’ pets than poor babies, simply because of the possible economic risks
indielovely
I mean they own Purina. It’s known that it’s pretty garbage food for dogs.
SirReginaldFeatherbottomIII
Check out Purina Proplan. It’s actually quality and not too expensive. It’s the only place Neslte is getting money from me.
honeyboobees
Same. I also like the Haagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream. Time to look for alternatives. I’ll have to do good research on dog food.
indielovely
No thanks. Why would I want to look into a product from them? There are plenty of other and better dog foods available.

Our cat eats Purina, so I will need to look into a better alternative for him soon. It sucks because he loves it.

Is there an alternative for nerds and gobstoppers I know it seems silly but I really enjoy these candies
wanjeonhanwalwal
I can't find any EXACT alternatives but think of what you like about them and go from there. Is it the flavor? Colours? Texture? Hardness?
