Did you know milk can be spoiled in certain conditions? ;)
I have one, three letter question.
Ded?
Why
Why does Coca Cola own a milk company? To combat Pilk with Cilk?
Mars (as in the candy company) is the largest veterinary company in the world.
Because corporations need to own everything. Global food trade is split up almost entirely by ten corporations: https://ourfuture.org/20170105/oxfam-ten-multinational-corporations-control-most-food-brands
Have fun trying to find food items in a supermarket that ar not in any way related to any of these.
Have successfully eliminated Nestle and cocoa related products from my life. I know its not even close to nano impact but its the least I can do 😅
If only that graphic could be opened, zoomed in, to actually see the various brands…
I mostly see this chart focused on ultra processed foods, so the base ingredients are mostly safe?
Also as a filthy Scandinavian, Orkla Group does have quite a lot available in the ultra processed category
I guess it depends on your supermarkets where they get their produce from, but I wouldn’t rule out even local farms somehow being owned through subsidiaries by these corporations.
Because subsidiaries.
These big corporations can leverage those subsidies very easily too. It’s be perfect, if they didn’t have to increase profits on fixed margins
In 2013, I messaged Coca-Cola on Facebook and asked them if Dasani was run off water from their soda factories. They blocked me.
Were the cows identities stolen?
I prefer oat milk
It is better.
In what way? Except for better shelf life, lower price (where i live at least), pretty good taste, easy to make at home, and it working perfectly fine as milk substitute in all dishes i’ve tried thus far, and no animals having to be exploited for its production
Besides those things how is it better?
Is this how I learn Coca-Cola owns Fairlife? I never knew. Now I have to find a new brand of filtered milk.
Fairlife also has a history of animal abuse controversies. Their name is a complete lie and I always recommend people to other brands if they care about animal cruelty in the slightest.
Branded milk is a wild concept
coke milk.
Where in the bumfuck do you live? All the milk in normal parts of the U.S. are branded.
My milk has the name for the store I buy it at. I think that’s probably what they’re referring to, just store brand milk versus, apparently, MilkaCola. CocaMilka.
Interesting. In New England at least, most of the milk/dairy products are either Hood or Garelick, which are not stores, and the only store brand I can think of is Cumberland Farms - and they started as a dairy farm that went on to open a chain of convenience stores.
Yeah, I’m from Jersey. And Cumberland Farms, I remember having one by us when I was a kid, but they all went away.
It’s the norm in Europe, and it makes absolute sense. Milk quality can vary wildly, so brands provide a way to identify a certain set of qualities.

Some farms are conventional, some are organic, some let’s their cows move more freely than others, some use more antibiotics others less, etc
So no, milk is not just milk. Animal welfare as well as animal intake are big parts for why certain brands can take a steeper price than others
The only places I’ve ever witnessed unbranded milk, are in very rural locations at which you pick it up at the literal farm that produced the milk and that’s a brand in itself
Definitely the norm in Germany
Pretty normal in Lithuania
Industrialized dairy farms are highly automated and feature a ton of networked computer equipment to facilitate that.
This isn’t some situation where a farmer rolls up to a cow with a bucket and a stool like the 1800s.
God damn it. Why couldn’t they fuck up Nestle’s production instead?
Why not both?
If Nestlé had a security breach that compromised production they wouldn’t stop the production. They’d just silently keep making compromised product and sort of fix it on the fly.
Means, they would just sent it to Asia or Africa - again
It’s questionable whatever they would even fix it at all and just keep producing the compromised product and lobby some politician to remove some regulations.
So, if there is a power outage, do their cows just explode?
I don’t think you really want to know this.

First question: why are you using a racist and “great replacement” conspiracy theorist in your meme
Me? I just repost from reddit. But seriously what racist theories?
“Theorist”. Jon Tron is a person with shitty opinions.
Although policing oneself to make sure that everyone in the memes one shares is squeaky clean and shares the group’s opinion on all subjects is very strange behavior when the content doesn’t also feature that opinion.
Right? TIL that everyone who’s ever shared this image supports fascism:
Yep, including you now! Congratulations on your newfound political views.
It’s really funny that vance started ozempic because Trump kept calling him fat because of this image
Fact Check: TRUE ✅
Jontron’s gone on the record supporting the legitimacy of white genocide, has stated that incarceration of blacks being higher in the US due to blacks being more criminal as a group, and several other batshit crazy things.
The guy was a genuinely funny content creator, he essentially destroyed his career with his politics.
I thought this was lost! I’m so happy this video still exists.
Reading the comments on this really makes me appreciate Lemmy commenters.
Lmao never seen this, perfect
