    Yes they target new mothers, offer them the milk powder for free, which the mother's readily accept. The mothers use it, the babies appear to like it so the mothers stop lactating. When they go back for some more milk powder, Nestlé say they have to pay, and because the mothers have dried up they have no option to pay for something they can ill afford.

    Beware Swiss bearing gifts.

    Inside my house is more like 1964!

    The Aldi imitation Marathon are pretty nice, they are called Racer, 6 in a pack for 80 something pence!

    I heard this recently, also the powdered milk has to be mixed with water, the water is very often contaminated, so making the baby ill.

    Yes we like those Racer bars too. Apt name, they go pretty quick in this house.

    Strangely, the similar looking bars without the nuts, Titan, I don't like, have bought these in error!


    I may have got the price of the Racer bars wrong, they might be cheaper than I said.


    Here is an old review of the Aldi Chocolate bars, packaging is a bit different now.
