Literally impossible to avoid Nestle. Even going to a restaurant or getting take out, benefitted Nestle in some way. Really it's the fault of governments for allowing a corporation to get that big
I can't help but notice you have disagreed with the comment above you, then gone on to explain that the exception to your disagreement is the exact scenario they described.
The issue with boycotting a huge company like Nestlé is that you put in a ton of time and effort while denying yourself lots of useful products and on Nestlé's end, they lose out on less profit than they bring in in a single minute.
They made $9.7 billion Net income in 2022. That's over $18,000 EVERY MINUTE. You can't make a difference and they don't care. The only ways to enact change are either through the legislative/regulatory route or through the extralegal route.
That's awesome! I think it's important to note, however, that the burden of change here is not on the individual. The average person is not an activist, and shouldn't be expected to be. Nestle knows that, too.
Change on this scale can only happen through government regulation.
Oh you've consumed Nestle, you just don't know it. They have over 200, brands and millions of individual products. Not to mention their non food companies. Again, it's an issue that governments should have dealt with long ago, and never should have let them get that big
Except E.Wedel is owned by Korean chaebol Lotte. Which is… I don’t even know honestly, I just know chaebols do a lot of fucked up shit. I guess my point is there is no ethical consumption under capitalism
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.
