Why does Coca Cola own a milk company? To combat Pilk with Cilk?
Because corporations need to own everything. Global food trade is split up almost entirely by ten corporations: https://ourfuture.org/20170105/oxfam-ten-multinational-corporations-control-most-food-brands
Have fun trying to find food items in a supermarket that ar not in any way related to any of these.
Have successfully eliminated Nestle and cocoa related products from my life. I know its not even close to nano impact but its the least I can do 😅
Every dollar not going to nestle helps.
If only that graphic could be opened, zoomed in, to actually see the various brands...
I mostly see this chart focused on ultra processed foods, so the base ingredients are mostly safe?
Also as a filthy Scandinavian, Orkla Group does have quite a lot available in the ultra processed category
I guess it depends on your supermarkets where they get their produce from, but I wouldn't rule out even local farms somehow being owned through subsidiaries by these corporations.
Mars (as in the candy company) is the largest veterinary company in the world.
Because subsidiaries.
These big corporations can leverage those subsidies very easily too. It's be perfect, if they didn't have to increase profits on fixed margins
In 2013, I messaged Coca-Cola on Facebook and asked them if Dasani was run off water from their soda factories. They blocked me.
I met this dude at a house party like 15 years ago. I had no idea who he was, and had a normal conversation with him with small talk like 'what do you do for a living,' etc.
Apparently he didn't like that I didn't know who he was, and complained to the host (a mutual friend). lol fucking clown.
15 years, huh. So about 7 of his videos ago.
(That's a jab at JonTrons horrible upload schedule)
Who is the dude? I still do not know.
I had to look it up when I got home the next day...
It's JonTron, a YouTube video game pseudo-celebrity that got into some trouble for being a piece of shit, and disappeared a few years back.
It’s JonTron
a nobody.
I prefer oat milk
It is better.
In what way? Except for better shelf life, lower price (where i live at least), pretty good taste, easy to make at home, and it working perfectly fine as milk substitute in all dishes i've tried thus far, and no animals having to be exploited for its production
Besides those things how is it better?
Were the cows identities stolen?
You wouldn't download a milk, would you?
