Is processed food the root of all evil when it comes to obesity? The biggest processed food company in the world is the Swiss multinational, Nestle. It manufactures baby food, breakfast cereals, confectionery, coffee, dairy products, ice cream and a whole host of other food products. And as regards the global debate on food and nutrition, Nestle clearly sees itself as being on the side of the Angels. In 2002 it co-founded the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative, it's signed up to the business concept of Creating Shared Value and it's launched initiatives and invested millions in several areas of welfare and health promotion.
