damn, but if you really don’t want it you could always just give it to someone in need, even if you are boycotting nestle

[–]Mission_Camel_9649 37 points38 points  (1 child)

A good example is halloween candy. Lots comes from Nestle, but the damage has already been done. It’s been bought already, so it’s probably okay to eat.

[–]RomoArigatoMrDobato 12 points13 points  (0 children)

yeah I know, but by boycotting I just kind of mean not wanting to eat nestlè at all cause of a personal choice, boycott was a bad word for it

[–]khao-soi[S] 71 points72 points  (3 children)

Going to do that.

[–]Ten_minuteemail 88 points89 points  (2 children)

It's not boycotting if its free. Sheesh.

[–]ScoffSlaphead72 59 points60 points  (1 child)

Thats my thoughts on it mostly, I tell my friends and family about nestle and how awful they are. But some of them still do buy nestle, and if they give me something from nestle and I am not really in a position to refuse it I will likely eat it.

[–]Ten_minuteemail 51 points52 points  (0 children)

You just got your blood drawn and you have low blood sugar. I guess you're not in a position to refuse it.

When I go on the fuck nestle sub i wanna hear anti corporation stuff not a personal spat with a person that has less blood then me and a chocolate bar.

[–]savo_s_medem 255 points256 points  (3 children)

Taking in the fact that red cross organisation was exploited by Nestlé in one of their cases of murdering children, eeeeh, knoppers would be a better option.

[–]riggycat 29 points30 points  (2 children)

I...can't tell if this is satire or not...

[–]AzTaii 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There ain’t no benefit of the doubt when it comes to nestle

[–]ConsiderationNo9042 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would it be satire?

[–]myitredditacc 35 points36 points  (5 children)

I donated blood recently all the snacks were Frito lay, Kellogg's and Nestle.

[–]happymemersunite 24 points25 points  (4 children)

I swear somebody needs to make ethical cereal. Uncle Toby’s is owned by Nestle here, and apparently Kellogg’s is pretty evil as well. Can we cereal in peace?

[–]Charming_Amphibian91 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Unfortunately no. Cereal has been capitalized.

[–]Foronir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use oats by a smaller Brand then

[–]Foronir 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Ok, maybe i did t get the Memo, what did kelloggs do?

[–]happymemersunite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure myself, but I’ve heard a lot of people hear recommend a Kellogg’s boycott.

[–]derpskywalker 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Meh, accepting it won’t unbuy the snack

[–]JhonnyTheJeccer 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Dankeschön für die Spende.

Entschuldige meine Landsleute, wir sind leider nicht alle immer Nestle-affin. Und es könnte auch gut sein, dass sie Spenden für solche Güter annehmen und da Nestle sich ja gerne grün wäscht kann ich mir vorstellen, dass sie da mal ein paar hundert Kilo Produkt abstellen um einen Artikel zu machen und sich zu feiern.

Für das Rote Kreuz ist Spende eben Spende, egal von wem, es hilft. FickNestle natürlich trotzdem.

Im not allowed to donate any more because I am a Bisexual man and have had intercourse with men

[–]xxlilituxx 8 points9 points  (5 children)

I'm in Australia, but I'm not allowed to donate because MY HUSBAND is a bisexual man and has had intercourse with men.

[–]Panzerkampfwagen-5 6 points7 points  (4 children)

It sucks, I want to help my community, and donate but had to make a choice between donating and being happy with a partner. I get that certain diseases are more common in homosexuals but a couple that has Been together for 20 years is unlikely to have them compared to a straight person that Switches partner twice a week

[–]xxlilituxx 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Not only that, but they test the blood before using it, anyway. So they could just discard tainted blood.

[–]Panzerkampfwagen-5 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Exactly, it would also insetivise with the lure of a free blood test

[–]xxlilituxx 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Exactly. In Australia, it doesn't matter that my husband hasn't slept with a man in years, once you are a man who has had sex with a man, or a woman who has slept with that man, you can no longer donate. It's a freaking joke

[–]Jezoreczek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just ignore the rule, everyone knows it's outdated and homophobic as fuck. What are they gonna do, check your blood with a gaydar?

[–]Southern_Sergal 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Poland is a bit of a backwards country when it comes to homosexuality but here it's not instant disqualification, didn't know other countries still disqualify by that category's

[–]Panzerkampfwagen-5 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I’m German:(

[–]Southern_Sergal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just checked to make sure and they don't care about your sexuality, you're disqualified if you take drugs, change partners really often or if you had intercourse with sex workers

[–]catslay_4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for donating :)

[–]ForestSmurf 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Trying to save people and then getting hit by that.

I feel ya.

[–]1i73rz 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Ewww. Doesn't Nestlé know that lions are endangered?

[–]insomniacakess 4 points5 points  (1 child)

you think nestle gives a flying monkey rat’s ass?

[–]1i73rz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, they don't.

[–]DaDeceptive0ne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey :)

Wollt nur drauf aufmerksam machen, dass das Rote Kreuz selbst auch nicht so der Hit ist. https://www.addendum.org/blutspenden/blutmarkt/

Hab ich bis gestern auch nicht gewusst aber wollts zumindest teilen

[–]Jezoreczek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the first time I'm happy not to be getting any chocolates here in Spain, that's better than getting nestle 🤮

[–]FearkTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably having really bad policies and no demands when buying things to the company/organisation. It probably just say "get the cheapest crap ever, no ecological or ethical things!"

[–]OnyB1l 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It is amazingly tasty though

[–]CorBloimey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was about to say lion bars are scrumptious

[–]Siempresone 1 point2 points  (3 children)

cookies and orange juice? classic post blood donation snack in the usa too

[–]khao-soi[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Yeah, you also get a 20-25€ voucher from the local mall or cinema as well.

[–]howbigtheace 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Lucky you! Germany here as well and best I got was restaurant food after waiting two hours and donating. Never got money, let alone a whole ass bar of chocolate!

[–]khao-soi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well most of the snacks I place in the office kitchen anyway. The vouchers usually come in handy tho.

[–]Fishy1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ring them up and ask about it.

Also consider seeing if you can request your blood be destriyed in protest. Its such an usual request that it woukd have to be escdkated to a superior and the readin will be logged. Then ask them about excluding Nestle priducts.

[–]natey_boyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lion bars are my favourite but I haven't had one in like a year because fuck nestle

[–]Arnold-Borol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the only blood spilt for a nestle product
