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.

It's not always that obvious. Nestle owns many companies and many of those products say nothing about Nestle on them.

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

There's a European store near my house called wedel lmao. I'll see if they have it there

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.

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

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....
