I am PASSIONATE about

people NOT EATING PEANUT BUTTER KIT KATS. Because they are made by Nestle who are spawn of the devil and have deprived me of everything from Golden Grahams to The Body Shop with their evil grabbing ways but I don't care because THEY MUST STOP. Yessir.

Seriously, guys, don't eat Nestle. That's what I've been passionate about telling people TODAY.

  - basically:
    
    Nestle market baby milk formula in developing countries, giving it to hospitals for free and encouraging doctors to recommend it over breastfeeding. Babies become dependent on it in hospitals, so the mother needs to keep feeding it the formula afterwards, but they make it very expensive once they're out, meaning that much of the family income has to go on it, and furthermore it needs to be mixed with water, but it is marketed in areas which often have contaminated water supplies. As a result, thousands of infants have died from this. The world health organisation has condemned this and Nestle have been told to stop, they are aware of this but continue the practice.
    
    So...
    
    cyan_scarab | 3 Jul '08, 17:17 | Reply
    - so...
      
      people should stop buying nestle milk formula.
      
      not chocolate, the dying babies are being killed off by peanut kit kat bars.

        stwerewolf | 3 Jul '08, 17:20 | Reply
      - um, no
        
        it's marketed in areas with little education, so the people, reasonably enough, do what the doctor advises, which, thanks to nestle's pressurising the hospitals, is to use the formula. so they don't have much choice in not buying it, especially when they're out of hospital and the child is dependent on it.
        
        so boycotting nestle products is a protest against this.

        well what happens
        
        if you all get what you want and nestle shuts down?
        
        what will they drink then?
        
        there is surely a second option.
        
        christ, such a poor arguement

        breast milk?
        
        And it's hardly a poor argument. The WHO recognise its seriousness, and I'm assuming they know their shit...

        well why don't they just skip the shit
        
        and use breast milk now. don't tell me walking to the hospital to pick up milk formula is quicker and easier than whipping out a tit.

        if they can, they go to a clinic or hospital (most likely clinic)
        
        to HAVE the child, which I hope you'd agree is reasonable enough. when they're there, THAT'S when they're given the first formula for free and the child becomes dependent on it rather than breast milk. so the family needs to keep getting the formula.

        Also..
        
        At my work nestle sweets are 5p more than any other brand. So.. Uh.. EVIL!
        
        But on a serious note, the formula milk thing does sound pretty terrible. And I guess it's unlikely an awful lot will be done about it.

        But what if,
        
        by us not buying chocolate bars,they lose profits.
        They then do the calculations,and decide that they get more money from the third world than us,so they just increase the pressure on the hospitals.
        No,I recomened getting a petition going,handing it over to your goverment when you get a couple of hundred thousand signitures
        They're not very popular,so they'll try and appease the people,and impose sanctions on nestle
        Or not,whatever,I've not thought this through!

    - why don't the doctors
      
      just not recommend it over breast milk? breast is best obvz.
      
      cat-g | 3 Jul '08, 17:22 | Reply
      - nestle supply them with the formula for free
        
        and constantly send representatives to the hospitals, pressurising the doctors, trying to prove it's better, advertising everywhere, etc etc. of course doctors COULD still recommend breast milk but it's not so simple.

        they're literally ramming bottles of nestle milk formula down kids throats, then there is always another option.

Not all at once mind. Although maybe it's been known. Write yourself a story about all three, go on, knock yourself out.
