Each bar is wrapped in cellophane, which are then wrapped in the normal outer packaging. To make the 4 pack, they simply took 2x two packs and put them on a cardboard tray,and then wrapped those.

I don't think I've ever gone through so much unwrapping for candy.

It also has alot of palm-oil in it so it is another reason to avoid it.

Fuck palm oil and any product using it, just like fuck nestle in general.

I know. Nestle is just kinda the leader of the pack of must get fucked into a black hole and is probably what all these distopiacorps aspire to be

Nestlé sucks. But I'd assume Ferrero uses even more palm oil. It is in pretty much all of their stuff.

And it's not vegan, and it's not made from fair cocoa, so two more reasons

[-] 1rre@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

It's milk chocolate (coated at least)... I've tried alternatives and frankly white, dark and flavoured vegan chocolates are good enough but there's nothing close to or as good as milk chocolate so at this point it's like saying "boycott steak because it's not vegan"... It's a fact, sure, but not a reason against it for people who aren't already vegan, and vegans are already boycotting it away, so it's a reason for nobody?

That said the fair cocoa point is very valid.

Even WWF doesn't think avoiding palm oil is a good solution. Not short term and definitely not long term

Palm is the most efficient crop for producing a wide range of fats. Replacing it with some other source of fat will require more land and water, and disrupt nature in another part of the world.

Thank you for the very informative link.

Did not know that.

I always try to avoid it but thanks to this list i at least know which company to trust about it a bit. Scorecard

Still wont buy anything from danone, mars or nestle tho.

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 8 months ago

Avoiding Nestlé is a good idea anyway. Fuck Nestlé.

[-] labsin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

I think it's fair to say those brands will source from the cheapest, scummiest places and it doesn't matter what "certificate" sticker is on the box.

But it is so hard to avoid them where I live :/ Even the fairtrade, vegan and ~~responsible~~ green washed products are from those 3...
