Pringles, is there a reason we can't stop once we've popped

Have you ever looked at who your foods are produced by?

Pringles – once you pop you can’t stop.  These addictive crisps are produced by Proctor and Gamble a well known company for animal testing.  They also produce many of our household cleaning products, cosmetics, pet food, batteries and prescription drugs.  Who knows what they are putting in our crisps?!  There's plenty of crisps to choose from, I think I'll stop the pop and buy stuff from a company that doesn't choose killing in the name beauty.  If you're worried about using products that have been tested on animals then check out this great website which will let you know what's what.  It's got great information about we can make a difference to animal cruelty.

Another bad company – Nestle – while your enjoying your Nescafe coffee or munching down on your favourite chocolate think about the poorer people in the 3rd World countries who Nestle supply baby formula for free to, telling the mother’s of these children that their baby food is better than their mother’s own breast milk.  This may sound like a genius idea and a grand gesture for such a rich company but when you research further into the baby formula they supply, you will find that it has to be mixed with water.  Why is this a problem, I hear you ask?  Anyone who was around in the 80's or who knows of charities like Oxfam will know that the water in 3rd world countries is dirty and so full of bacteria that when the mother mixes their FREE formula and feed it to their babies, they then eventually die from diseases carried in this water, which ironically, had they have been drinking their mother’s breast milk they would have built up a natural immunity for.  So I guess when I take a break I won't be choosing KitKat, I'll have a nice bar of Galaxy instead.  Get more info about boycotting Nestle from the website below:

Anyway readers, if you know of anymore companies that are not quite as good as everyone thinks then please let me know so that together we can let everyone know what is being hidden from the consumers eyes.

UPDATE ON CORPORATE COMPANIES

If I said to you 'Coca Cola'.  What would spring to mind?  A lovely smiling fat Santa Claus handing out a bottle of delicious coke to a young girl looking in a shop window.  Or would it be smiling polar beers enjoying their bottle of coke in the snow.  Or how about an example of advertising that was brought to my attention by a friend -

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's entitled Columbian Coke Float and it's available to see with other astounding information on:

From now on I don't think I will be partaking in a diet coke break of any kind.
