Nestlé's business practices violate many of the values that most of us hold. But they, like other giant corporations, purchase so many brands that
it is unreasonable to expect even the most informed of consumers to keep them straight. The result is a predatory ability to trick people into financially supporting practices they find abhorrent.
The goal of this project is to "lower the veil" and provide consumers with the transparency they deserve when trying to make an informed choice in line with their beliefs.
To that end, this website is a free, accessible resource for consumers so that they can know who they are buying from and what they are funding.
This problem is so much larger than Nestlé alone, but they stand as a prominent contributor to the problem of companies placing profit over lives.
In the interest of transparency, this project is open source and the full codebase can be viewed (and contributed to)
here.
I must also acknowledge the inspiration I got from amazing projects that came before this, such as
Peoplecott by Charles Stover.
Stay safe out there, and let's do our best to buy in line with our ethics wherever possible!
