So what's this about?, Around the world
The Fat Shall Set You Free
Nestle, the world’s largest food company based in Switzerland, bought U.S. weight-loss company Jenny Craig for around $600 million, according to a CNN report. Now I am not sure if you see the irony in all of this, but a company that aids and abets in many a fat crimes has bought a company that tries to rid people of fat. So how does this work? According to Nestle, “This acquisition will … reinforce Nestle Nutrition’s presence in the USA, the world’s largest nutrition and weight management market.” Huh? This is the same Nestle that produces blubber catalysts like Kit Kat and Nestle Crunch, right? Talk about the cat guarding the hen house. What next? Barcardi acquiring Alcoholics Anonymous?
