I used to do cocaine, it’s not addictive at all compared to sugar.

Are we not gonna talk about all the high fructose corn syrup in baby formulas?
This is soo wrong, just crazy!
They realized just now? Cerelac is sold in Chile. I knew it since the past century. It has always been sweet.
You have to be another level of evil to do this children just because they live in one of these countries. hopefully the government of these countries take action and punish Nestlé. Thank God for the researchers who caught this.

Greedy corporations like Nestle, Monsanto/Bayer Boeing
In the Philippines they put sugar in their spaghetti sauce. This helps explain their taste.
So they're adding sugar? It's not high fructose corn syrup... 🤷♀️
Could this be planned?

That’s why I don’t give any baby products from market to my baby. Each time i read the label, everything includes sugar and salt . I doubt if they will give those products to their own kids 🧐
"The local laws allow us to poison babies. It's not our fault they let us." Nestle
So they bcm addicted early in life..which leads to obesity in adulthood...which leads to dialysis, heart disease, etc.
Ik zou het schokkend vinden als er teveel suiker in zou zitten, maar dat lijkt dus niet het geval te zijn. De hoeveelheden suiker zijn slechts verschillend.
Nestle, taking a page from Philip Morris-addiction for profit. Way to go Nestle, you emulated cigarette manufacturers and hopefully will pay a similar price
Omg!!!! I can believe thi- oh it’s Nestle? No wonder
It's true
They hate poor countries.
Poor countries eat more sugar wow

Sad. It tastes good, but makes us sick. Crazy for a baby food company to use it. We trusted them to make a healthy product.
Profit before humanity our foods are full of all kinds of bad stuff.

Dude, it’s just sugar, if they listed it on the nutritional label, then it’s really the parents fault for not reading it…..

Maybe it doesn't have the word "Sugar" on the label. Maybe it has one (or more) of those two dozen+ words ending in "-ose" on the label. If parents in one area can shop with confidence…AND without a Thesaurus in tow…why not parents in another area?

@@kristinab9680 First of all, they're called "sugar-substitutes", and Maltodextrin, Aspartame, as well as Fructose are some of the most common. Secondly, if you don't know the names of the different artificial sweeteners found in your child's food products, then clearly, you're not intelligent enough to be a responsible parent.
