▼ + stars: | 2023-07-13 | by ( Nicolas Vega | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

The BK Barbie Combo features a cheeseburger topped with bacon bits and dressed with a bright pink sauce that Burger King says has a "smoky" flavor. Once the straw is put into the dessert, Burger King tops it off with a pink frosted donut. It's not the first time that Burger King has offered a movie-themed meal. But unlike the Spider-Man burger, it doesn't appear that the BK Barbie Combo will be making its way stateside. A representative for Burger King did not immediately respond to CNBC Make It's request for comment.

Nestle, which is replacing imported corn starch in Nigeria with cassava starch, told Reuters it has helped seven local suppliers to boost capacity to meet the company's supply needs. ONION POWDER AND TURMERICNestle said it was working to develop local suppliers of vegetables and spices used in Maggi products, for instance onion powder in Nigeria and Senegal, and turmeric powder in Nigeria. Nestle did not comment on whether its position in Nigeria would help insulate it from foreign exchange volatility, neither did it give an indication of the economic impact of the local sourcing.

☆ Nestlé, the world's biggest consumer food company, says it will keep hiking prices in 2023, and that its rivals will have to do the same

Food and drinks conglomerate Nestlé says it will continue putting up prices in 2023. The Swiss conglomerate said at its fourth-quarter earnings call on Thursday that the price increases would be targeted rather than across the board. Pet care, prepared dishes, cooking aids, milk products, and ice cream had the largest price increases globally. "In 2022, pricing became the largest contributor to growth," CFO François Roger said, meaning that price increases led to more growth in revenues as sales growth declined. Nestlé's upcoming rises will be justified by data "otherwise retail partners and consumers will simply not accept price increases," Schneider said.

В швейцарской транснациональной корпорации Nestle (бренды KitKat, Maggi, Nescafe, Nesquik и Nestea) заявили, что 60% продукции компании вредны для здоровья, а некоторые категории продуктов никогда не смогут стать частью здорового питания, сколько бы компания их ни обновляла. Об этом говорится в презентации Nestle, пишет Financial Times. 96% напитков, за исключением кофе, а также 99% кондитерских изделий и мороженого Nestle, также не прошли порог, сообщает znak.com. Одними из самых вредных продуктов были признаны пицца Digorno с мясом на слоеном тесте: она содержит 40% суточной нормы натрия, а пицца Hot Pockets с пепперони — 48% от суточной нормы натрия.

☆ Почему в разных странах запретили мультгероев на коробках с едой

А если в вашем доме живет уже взрослый ребенок, то наверняка его «еда» неотделима от конфет, мороженого, зефира, хлопьев и прочих сладостей. Но как раз из-за обилия всех этих вкусностей во многих странах стоит остро проблема детского ожирения. Но в последние годы страны, обеспокоенные проблемой нездорового питания и лишнего веса детей, стали запрещать изображать на упаковках с нездоровой едой мультяшных героев. Под нездоровой едой подразумеваются все продукты питания и напитки с высоким содержанием сахара, соли, жиров, калорий. А недавно подобный запрет ввела и Мексика: в их стране теперь запрещен Честер, который любит читос, и прочие персонажи.
