      They also need to go on trial for persuading mothers of newborn babies to bottle-feed instead of breastfeed their babies. Nestles gave out free samples of formula to the mothers whilst they were in hospital, making all kinds of lying claims that formula was better for their babies. Most of the mothers lost the ability to breastfeed their infants because it wasn't established early on, and when they took their baby home they discovered that they couldn't afford to buy formula milk, and all the equipment needed - bottles, teats, a steriliser and sterilising tablets. A study found that between 1969 and 2015 10,870,000 babies died due to malnutrition caused by Nestle pushing formula onto new mothers and interrupting them from breastfeeding their babies at a crucial time when it is necessary for the babies to create the demand for milk from their mothers in order for the supply to be there when it is needed. Nestle KNEW this, but they were making so much money from the mothers who desperately somehow rustled up the money for formula and all the equipment, that they continued with their evil plan.This isn't the only evil thing they have done. Currently, they have privatised a river in Pakistan and stopped locals from using it as a source of water under the threat of being fined. Now, instead of getting their water directly from the river they have to buy it from Nestles as bottled water, which is causing great hardship. Especially at this time, when the temperatures in Pakistan are well over 40 degrees centigrade. The Nestles CEO has even gone on record saying that "water is not a human right". Please boycott Nestles and don't buy any of their products. Money is the only language they understand, if enough of us boycott their products they might consider changing their evil practices.

    The Drifter ad was a direct steal from the 'I speak Jive' scene in 'Airplane', silly as all hell but it worked!
    "What has a hazelnut in every bite? Squirrel sh*t!" was the joke doing the rounds at my school during the Topic campaign...kids are like that. And I was always among the worst offenders. 😂
    Aztec bar for me though, I miss that you had to fight them for every bite, the filling was so tough! Like the very early Curley Wurleys, all the chocolate coating would fall off through you struggling to bite a piece off! 😂
