Hello, and a big FUCK YOU to Nestle!

I wanted to start a thread where we could share any Nestle-alternative products we have come across! I will get the ball rolling with what I have found over the years:

KitKat- KitKats used to be my very favorite candy, so I was bummed when I learned they are made by Nestle. This is now my go-to alternative: https://norwegianfoodstore.com/products/kvikk-lunsj-chocolate-3-x-47-gram

Kiehl’s skincare products- I used to use Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream, but now use e.l.f Holy Hydration face cream, which has the same ingredients and costs much less per ounce https://www.elfcosmetics.com/elf-skin

Starbucks ground/whole bean coffee- Some of the bags you buy in the supermarket are made by Nestle (you have to check the back and sides of the bag to be sure). I stopped buying Starbucks and started buying bags of whole bean from a local coffee shop that roasts their own

Garnier hair care products- I dye my hair frequently and used to use Garnier product, whose parent company is L’Oreal, which is owned by Nestle. I now use Clairol instead

For a large list of Nestle-owned products, see Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nestl%C3%A9_brands

What are some Nestle-alternative brands that others here have found and enjoy?

    Aldi also is a great place for alternatives that honestly taste better
