Also, if you’re having a Halloween party, avoid these brands that you might use for party food:
  • Nestle Toll House (chocolate chips, refrigerated cookie dough)
  • Juicy Juice
  • Coffee-Mate
  • Dreyer’s
  • Haagen-Dazs
  • Jamba Ready-to-Drink
  • La Lechera (condensed milk)
  • Nescafe
  • Nestea
  • Nestle Abuelita chocolate
  • Nestle Crunch Ice Cream and Dibs
  • Nestle Hot Cocoa
  • Taster’s Choice
  • YoCrunch yogurt
  • Water: 
    • Pure Life
    • Aqua Pod
    • Arrowhead
    • Calistoga
    • Deer Park
    • Ice Mountain
    • Montclair
    • Nestle Pure Life
    • Ozarka
    • Poland Springs
    • Zephryhills
* The above lists the relevant brands Nestle manufactures themselves but there are many other products and brands they are involved with distributing, licensing (such as Kit-Kat) or have partial ownership of in the US and globally so there may be other products in the Halloween aisle but at least this is a start.

If you’re in Canada, visit INFACT Canada for a list of their Canadian-distributed brands.

If you'd like to avoid ALL Nestle brands, visit Crunchy Domestic Goddess for a comprehensive list.

What is Boo Nestle?

Participation in a campaign as far-reaching as the Nestle Boycott can be overwhelming.

But it's exactly because so many of the products we feed our families are made by Nestle that we can help protect vulnerable children and families around the world with our action.

So this Halloween take one concrete step: don't buy any Nestle candy for the ghouls and goblins knocking at your door.
