The whole point of going to a Mega Image is that you don’t have to buy a Milka. Instead, you can buy a Western European chocolate brand in its original Western European version, and for not significantly more money than that Milka would cost in a Profi or village shop.
Similarly, at a Carrefour or Auchan you could buy the generic-label chocolate, which is just the French version with a Romanian ingredients sticker pasted on it, for the same price as a Milka.
People in big cities have access to plenty of high-quality products if they just take advantage of that opportunity and ignore stuff like your Milka example. It is people in small towns and villages who are forced to buy shit food.
- alt_f4 9y agoYeah and that is what people have been doing. But it's a pretty sad state of affairs when the best chocolate you can get is generic-label chocolate from Carrefour. Or, if you're lucky enough to live around one / can afford to shop at a place that imports foreign products from UK / Germany outside of the regular distributor network. On the other hand, in Germany, you can buy a Milka pretty much anywhere and it is a good chocolate. Also, this is not really about Milka, it is about thousands of products across dozens of categories, so we can't just ignore this as an isolated, one-off issue. That is why people are pissed.
