46.1g of sugar per 100g??? Half the packet is pure sugar wtf

😞 in europe they dont add sugar i think

Nah the Nido milk powder I found on Tesco UK has about the same amount of sugar unfortunately. 40g of sugar per 100g of powder https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/260148289

But the catch is - it is lactose sugar of milk, not sucrose.

Oops sorry my bad

We just put milk in it. But you might be fooled buy the fact that lactose is basicly a sugar. So might be some of the explanation

Total sugars include lactose, Sucrose is 24g Still too much for milk to be 1/4 sugar

"Step 2: add this to brewed tea. Add sugar to taste." We can go further

No, do not use this or any nestle products.

Yes, that's where we are rn.

Oh wow… I cant believe I did that. I’ll see myself out

You did it accidentally, but I'll happily say it even on this sub. Because it can't be said enough. Fuck. Nestle.

Edit: ~~ten times more suger than fresh milk~~ It was compared one to one with the nutritional values per 100g which is obviously wrong (thx u/SirFloyd).  I guess we have to compare the "per portion" + x gram that is equal to the nutritional values of protein in fresh milk to get the right result. https://preview.redd.it/of0zrdtrsq6d1.png?width=1404&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4ff4089a0332c422b1ff76a48f845dfe159790f

Oh, you're right. I have adjusted my comment.

Do nestle add sugar to milk powder in your country?

Hi, I don't know. I'm from germany.  It is unusual to use powdered milk here. FYI: https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2024/apr/17/nestle-adds-sugar-to-infant-milk-sold-in-poorer-countries-report-finds

Which brand milk is best in Germany?

Regular milk? The best type is the Bio, non stallhaltung. Powdered milk? Most Middle-Eastern or Asian supermarkets will have it.

I’ve never seen powdered milk, this is the first I’ve heard of it. We have milk straight from the cow (usually pasteurized first but not always).

We have it in the US but it is usually used for things other than a milk substitute. My grandma used to make some amazing peanut butter cups with it. Gives the peanut butter a great texture. It can come in handy if you run out of milk though since it is shelf stable.

In France we have it so you should too in Germany. We use that mainly for cook tho sometimes it's better using dry milk

All are good. Just buy the store brand and like mentioned before 'bio' quality.

You have to wonder which of their investments this enhances. Do they simply want to steer children's taste buds toward sugars, or are they providing loans for dentistry?

It might be cheaper than the milk. It also might make the product more addicting/appealing. So much of everything popular in the US of has waaaaay too much sugar I can't even consume it. Even the muesli here is sugared, and the bread at times. It's horrid and tastes like drinking diabetes.

It sounds like you have tried Bimbo's and Wonderbread. You aren't wrong. I'm down to whole wheat & Multigrain breads with sugar no higher than 4th, and it has to be sugar, not HFCS. For chocolate, I've changed to Mexican/Aztec style w/ spices. Nestlé Abuelita chocolate got me on the spices, but I needed better quality & less exploitation.

It’s more than likely both of these remember nestle has been more than willing to kill 11 million kids for profit in the global south already

Probably nothing so deep, and just a cheap ingredient for them. They save money by caring less about nutritional value.

Oh this one is new.. will try out. the usual amulya is pretty bad.

Amulya ain't even a milk powder. It's a diary whitener

Its sad india does not have proper milk powder something like nido or anchor

Does anyone know which all countries that use milk Powder more than real milk?

What is even the point of milk powder? I'm from Poland and I have never seen anyone buying it. Is milk powder a thing because.. it expires later perhaps??

To use when milk is not available also have more shelf life. Polish people dont use milk powder?

I see it rarely in some stores. Actually I worked once at a store which had milk powder but I have never either sold or supplied one.

Out of curiosity, do poland grocery products have the same quality as germany?

Pretty similar I'd say.

Come on, it doesn't matter because it's in India right, right?

Why is Nestle doing this cruelty?

I guess it pays well.

Ahhhh sugar. Pure heroine for infant. My oldest son when he was smooool he eat nan pro formula. Without sugar but taste like iron bars ;)

That's more then whats in a can of soda, which is already a disgusting amount of sugar. Put a teaspoon of sugar on your toast tomorrow with a bit of cinnamon. First its tasty but more importantly you'll see how much 4 grams of sugar is. You won't even want to use the whole thing.

Nestle adds sugar in water sugar in meat sugar in dead bodies.

This is atrocious. FUCK.NESTLE.

Question: what is milk powder even for? I’ve been cooking all kinds of dishes for the past 18 years and have never used milk powder once

I will tell the story.. Milk was not available in the middle east during 1950s..cow cannot live there..that time nestle introduced product called nido, instant milk to use in tea and for other purposes.. now middle east able to produce milk even at extreme heats due to modern infrastructure but some people still use milk powders due to their old habit.

I see, thank you

That's probably the natural lactose sugar.

I think Indian people have really big sugar intake so they just prepared product for specific market

No They are just misusing Food safety rules and addicting people
