I was kind of surprised that they tried to astroturf here. Reddit probably has their back and they got too cocky.

The company has been associated with various controversies, facing criticism and boycotts over its marketing of baby formula as an alternative to breastfeeding in developing countries (where clean water may be scarce), its reliance on suppliers that use child labour in cocoa production, and its production and promotion of bottled water.

Nestlé is involved in many significant controversies due to Nestlé's reported use of

• Baby milk controversy
• incidents of contaminated and infested food products,
• actively spreading disinformation about recycling,
• illegal water-pumping from drought-stricken Native American reservations,
• preventing access to non-bottled water in impoverished countries,
• price fixing,
• slave labor,
• child labor,
• extensive union-busting activity, and
• deforestation.

Of note KitKats made in the US are made by Hershey, not Nestle. As I understand it's a legacy licencing deal and Nestle makes no money if you buy a US KitKat.

That being said Hershey's chocolate is what it is. American's are used to it, but it's not great.

Avoid nestle products like they're poison. Because they are.

Instructions unclear: Bought a tomato and ended up in The Bad Place.

If you want a chocolate coated cookie that isn't shit and isn't Nestle, be in the lookout for Tim Tams.

They can be a bit tricky to track down in the US - 'world foods' type grocers would be the place to look.

They're an Australian cookie that puts US junk food to shame (not a high bar, but still).

They are especially amazing if you take a tiny nibble off of two opposing corners, and use it like a straw to suck some coffee or tea or anything hot. Shove the whole thing in your mouth the second you start feeling coffee come through, and enjoy a gooey explosion of ~~diabetes~~ deliciousness.

Bonus points if you can find the caramel ones.

there are alternative wafers covered in chocolate

Argentina produces grafiti, which is available at the very least in uruguay and argentina, probably in other places in LATAM as well

At first glance, I thought that was a pile of cocaine on the 3rd kit kat.....I need to go to bed.

Better than Kit Kat.

Also that sugar isn't good for the body, at least not for mine. I get rashes and a dry throat when i eat too much sugar. Fruit and vegetables put me in a good mood, but i try to reduce my unnecessary sugar intake anyways.

The truly ascendant way to eat kit Kats is in a smore.

It is always moral to shoplift nestle products.

i hate kitkats. It tastes just like dirty socks smell

Maybe just don't eat shit with tons of sugar and fat...

I've been boycotting Nestle for years and I still avoid them when I can, but these days if my only choices are Nestle or an American brand (Nestle is Swiss) I'll choose Nestle.

The two biggest things that are hard to will myself not to buy are Quick and Hot Pockets.

At least there are plenty of chocolate milk alternatives. I never see off-brand Hot Pockets :(

I can make my own but sometimes I just wanna grab a thing to nuke real quick. And I get bored of hotdogs. The closest thing I end up getting instead are pizza rolls. And those aren't the same.
