There are people on this board who said they'll give up Nestle, but they still eat it. What's the point of the boycott if you eat it?

Well boycotting is a personal issue because it is closely related to your beliefs and morals.
Personally I have greatly cut down on the amount of Nestle I eat. I tend to avoid it out of habit but occasionally I do have some. Saying that, I almost never actually buy any myself so it's only the odd occasion if my mum has bought some and I'm home, but that's irrelevant.

What's the difference between your mum buying it and you buying it? The issue is you eating it

I'm pretty much like Kirsty Manoj. I don't go out of my way to buy Nestle products, but if they are bought for me i feel obliged to eat them.

What's the difference between your mum buying it and you buying it? The issue is you eating it No, I disagree. When I'm doing the shopping for my mum, I dont buy Nestle. It always annoys her because I wont buy Nescafe, and she ends up with chocolate digestives instead of Kit Kats and Aeros. And, as a result, I almost never eat Nestle when I'm at uni because I dont buy it myself. My mum buys it at home and occasionally I have something but not very often. Besides she buys things like a four pack of Kit Kat Chunky's and there are four members in our family. Now either I eat mine, or my brother ends up with two. So it really doesnt make much difference, sometimes I have something, sometimes I dont. The fact remains that I never buy Nestle myself (and since I live away from home most of the year that makes much more of a difference than it would to you) and I support the milk powder campaign in other ways.

Whats the point? Its the same with my mum, Kirsty can't stop her mum buying Nestle so what difference would her not eating it make if the money has already gone to Nestle?

Let your brother eat Nestle and go fat then Tsk, what's the point? If I want to eat a Kit Kat and there's one sitting right there then I shall I've already cut waaaaay down on Nestle and that is enough for me.

No Manoj, I think that's very unfair.
