      Same here, and as another commenter remarked, their stuff is more expensive, which is why I naturally avoid it.

    Their products have always been the most expensive in the supermarket, from any brand they promoted and even if they have a brand of vegan ones, nearly all of their products are not vegan.

    To be exact, I don’t see any reason to buy from them so far.

    Count me in!

    I try my best to avoid buying from them regardless of the month… Having said that, kitkats are my weakness. Lol.

    I’m already on the “no added sugar” and “no processed foods” diet for a few years so that cuts out basically all Nestle products…

      Don’t worry they’ll come and try to get your money in the future. This list seems to be focused on the US, in Germany most of these brands aren’t known as well. But I think many german brands are owned by Nestle as well.

        Yes, Wikipedia has a more extensive List that also has non-US brands. The country-specific ones have the country name so you can search for germany, but some are international.

    The trap to avoid here is conflating fancy logos with fancy food. The prices are so steep for the branding (logo design, advertising etc.) not the quality of the food, which is as low and as cheap as possible to maximize the profit.

    The graphic visualizes well how aggressively Nestlé spams brands across diverse ranges of products, surely as a cowardly disguise since they know about leaked information about their wrongdoings and their bad reputation due to negative media coverage.

      Rebranding is a tried and true way for companies to shed their stained history. Other examples include Philip Moores rebranding themselves as Altria, and Facebook becoming Meta literally last week.
