Good on Schwarzenegger. I really hope it makes some difference, but most information channels have been shut down in Russia to make sure that the Russian citizens have no access to anything remotely true.

Peter's a little whacky, but nothing like his dad.  I have a friend who does some work for him.  He believes in metal because the IRS took all his dad's money (google Irwin Schiff)

Yup - this is the opportunity to apply the rest of the world sanctions on Nestle products.

Looking at the brand diagram, the only one we regularly buy is KitKat. No longer.

You still have a possibility. KitKat is handled by Hershey, Nestle's rival, in the US. So maybe avoid elsewhere, but stock up from US and double the economic damage to Nestle.

Who would have thought that KitKat chocolate finger biscuits was a global brand?

I ain't buying any more of them.

One more diversion point. When I was a kid on a family friends boat on Lake Erie and crossing over to the Canadian island Pelee, literally all I remember about any cultural differences were that KitKats had a different name (at the time), Rowntree. It seemed so sophisticated. For a few years in this brain KitKats were THE global brand.

Nestle has been on the shit list for decades, due to pushing formula instead of breastfeeding in developing countries. Countless babies sick or dead from sub-optimal nutrition and formula prepared in unsanitary conditions. In this context, I'm not sure anything will push the needle on their corporate practices :(
