Ne*tle also does this thing where they lie to mothers in 'third-world countries' (I hate that term but can't think of a better one rn) by telling them that their baby formula is better than actual milk, then give them some, which the mothers mix with dirty water, and when they can't afford the formula, they'll just give the babies plain dirty water.

An important part of that process that needs mentioning is that when the mothers are convinced by Nestle to feed their babies formula instead of their breast milk, their bodies will stop producing the milk before the baby is weaned from it.

So Nestle literally endangers babies' lives just to sell more baby formula.

That's an important addition!

Nestle also fucks up entire cities water supplies.
