The food industry invests billions of dollars to make us think that we depend on them. We don’t have a choice but to keep buying their products and there is no space for a change.

The History Of Nestle – Part 2.
We should all start to question things that are told to us in expensive marketing campaigns. It’s like every company in the world to have a pristine public image. To try to sell us the idea that they always think first of the consumer’s needs instead of their own profits. But we are not small children anymore. And maybe it’s hard to give up on things that bring us comfort. However, we as consumers need to decide what we want to support when we buy certain products. We have the freedom and the responsibility to be moral in our choices and try to fix things that greedy companies are doing to increase their profit.

The Truth About Vegetable Oils – Part 2.
It is not exactly vegetable oil. A better name would be seed oil. But seed oil doesn’t really sell as well as vegetables, right? Vegetables are supposed to be good for you. So it’s just a marketing technique. They didn’t really lie. They just used a different name. And all vegetables really do come from seeds. Companies use marketing and research to inform the public about the benefits of their products. But the vegetable oils industry did more than that. They paid organizations to tell us what they wanted not taking any responsibility for the product they have created. Just for the sacred cause of making more money.
The Truth About Vegetable Oils – Part 1.
All companies are established to make money. What bothers me so much about vegetable oils is the fact that the sole name of their product is misleading. The sole purpose of their products is based on mass marketing that is not telling the facts to the consumers. It is a fact that they successfully avoid taking any responsibility or accountability for their manufacturing and selling techniques. And the worst of all is the fact that they keep doing it to this day and they are not showing any signs of stopping.
