When I think Nestle I think "giant international conglomerate" not "chocolate company." For specific products I tend to think of their coffee products more than anything else since I grew up making Nescafe instant coffe for my great-grandmother almost everyday.

But then I worked for years with them in their international conglomerate role and never once dealt with issues related to chocolate.

What I find funny is not that a "chocolate company" bought a weight loss company (especially since they had already done that years ago when they purchased Lean Cuisine) but rather that abouf 5 mega-companies produce about 80% of what you'll find on the shelves at your local grocery store.
