Ever heard of Unilever or Nestlé?
- Arnt 5y agoOf course. But what do you mean to say? Do, for example, try to suggest that Unilever or Nestlé sells as much "parmesan" in Europe as Kraft sells in the US? (I mention parmesan and Kraft because the article does — feel free to substitute any other product/conglomerate pair.)
- rsynnott 5y agoI assume their point was that enormous food conglomerates aren’t just a US thing.
- Arnt 5y agoSounds likely, coupled with a blind assumption that since the conglomerates dominate most segments in the US, they'll dominate the geographical products in Europe (and where relevant, elsewhere) to a comparable degree.
