I am a staunch opposer to the death penalty, and believe no crime, no matter how severe warrants an execution, but I wouldn't lift a finger to stop the execution of Nestlé executives because they aren't worth a single calorie spent on their defence.
... and then bribed FSSAI with ₹15K and are back to selling Maggi ever since.
Proud boycotter of Nestle since nearly a decade. I either get myself noodles from Nissin or Korean/Vietnam/Indonesia ramen brands. There are plenty, Nongshim, Samyang, Indomie, Vifon, Omni and others. All are outright superior to the garbage Maggi people eat just because of cultural popularity. Some of them cost a lot though, but I do not eat everyday so I find it extremely reasonable to purchase.
I vary my carb snacks, sometimes ramen, poha, oats, omelettes etc.
Try getting some of those brands from Blinkit, they sometimes have good discounts. I know they are expensive, but I find them worth only because I consume noodles at most twice a week.
Also, avoid WaiWai and a lot of unknown brands from Nepal, their noodles taste bad or meh. Korea, Vietnam and Indonesia have massive noodle consumption and know their game. Chinese noodle cuisine does not exist as packaged brands and only have restaurant options that need time and investment.
I think Unilever is a lot better than having to choose Nestle, one of the worst brands in existence. Unilever is massive, there is only so much we can do. The only big Western food brands I consume from are Cadbury/Mondelez and (Kwality) Walls (Walls is under Unilever) I think, others are Korean, Japanese or Indian.
Fuck 'em, I found a new love my .357
And my best little back up, a black Smith and Wesson
I got a Glock 19 with a laser inside
And I'm the one you need to watch for when we go on a ride
