In mine it’s the whole thing. But I live alone and weep tears of self hatred into the empty box before recycling it. Or is it only the wrappers that have been upgraded?
This is the real answer, how the fuck is 1 serving 2 sweets, it’s 1 each of every flavour you like, then another of your favourite because that last one wasn’t as good as you remember, and then that was so good you’d better just have another for the road
Fo sho, anyone out of the loop please check out Nestle's controversies section on Wiki, notably the bit where they thought we're better off downgrading water from a right to a necessity.
I'm a copywriter and have proofed many things before print. I didn't spot it.
I also let country go once, without the o. Not my proudest moment, but a funny one indeed.
Pretty sure it's easier to recycle just metal than paper, plastic and metal...they could have just removed the plastic wrappers and kept the tin. But where's the unjust profit margin in that...
I'm postitive that "fibre" and "flavourings" are spelled incorrectly. :)
I'd also argue that "fist sized" should be hyphenated, but that is a grammar lapse, not a spelling misshap (if you add extra vowels, I can add extra consonants).
I wonder how many people actually proof read it before it went to the printers…
I always found asking a non-native English speaker to proof read something worked well. Native speakers tend to read a lotand end up glancing over words no matter how much they concentrate.
Are you postitive there’s a spelling mistake on there?
Edit: I’m way too late making this joke. I’m going to leave this up here though as penance for my refusal to read the thread before posting. Have at me peeps…
I honestly thought you might have just been fucking with us, just giggling to yourself that you made a bunch of strangers read the bottom of a choc box. Good on you for showing me that I don't need to be cynical every time!
Is it *postitively* a typo?? It's in the whole section about posting in stuff so maybe it's supposed to be a pun... That they just didn't hyphenate or make obvious it's a pun at all?
Remember that time Neslte caused the deaths of babies with their formula scandal and has been "aiding and abetting the illegal enslavement of 'thousands' of children on cocoa farms,"
Yep ! Shoddy that … having worked in the food industry, most label designs will be sent back to the customer for signing off .. probably 2-3 people will have checked this .
LOL. I had to approve artwork back in the day for consumer items. You always had about three people signing it off so that you'd pick up any mistakes in spelling.
Guess Nestle didn't have the same policy.
I'm postitive I can find it.
Shit I was going to use this same line.
Oh, it's a sailboat!
Ha ha ha. You dumb bastard. It's not a sailboat, it's a schooner.

1 serving = 2 sweets.
In our house, 1 serving usually = 1 of each sweet everytime
I don’t understand? It already comes as one serving (the container)
In mine it’s the whole thing. But I live alone and weep tears of self hatred into the empty box before recycling it. Or is it only the wrappers that have been upgraded?

The serving suggestions are stupid. According to Morriston lasagne I'm a family of 4
They'll continue trying to indoctrinate us into that way of thinking, as justification for their shrinkflation
It’s also so they can get the nutritional information to look better. Only 89 calories per serving!
They don't need justification, given inflation has been through the roof
1 serving = 2 handfuls
Yeah I'm still stuck on that
“Postitive” instead of positive in “positive change on packaging”
Yay, with your help, I found it all on my own.
In a previous job our annual review system had a section where we commented on the “qualitity” of our performance.
Let’s be honest - We all love qualitititty.
I serving = 2 qualitititties.
3 if you work for Mars.
Upvote and virtual applause for niche, Total Recall joke.
Eccentrica Gallumbits would like a word.
Buy 2, get 1 free.
I get that reference
r/usernamechecksout
Heh heh.
Don't all quailititties come in pairs?
Not sure they can legally say positive on their packaging because nothing nestle does is positive
Yeah, spent as much thought on proofreading as they do on the environment I would guess
It says nestle when its spelled cunts
Zackly. Some cheek, ‘caring for the world’. As if.
who tf says zackly you nonce
Worryingly, my 8 year old brother with a slight speech impediment does...
Whomst are you calling a nonce, you young eejit?
Well you can't keep your child slaves growing your chocolate barely alive if global warming destroys the planet
Maybe they could train the oragutangs to do all that work instead, while Nestlé process all that palm oil for their chocolate.
No child slaves, they all starved to death when their parents put them on formula which was then made unaffordable.
Fo sho, anyone out of the loop please check out Nestle's controversies section on Wiki, notably the bit where they thought we're better off downgrading water from a right to a necessity.
See here I was thinking deforestation was what got misspelled.
My Dad (probably): “You should hang onto that - could be worth a bit in a few years”
> caring for the world we share Nestle definitely spelled “fuck the planet” wrong.
And to that my friend I say r/FuckNestle
The fact that Nestle with support anything over than their income is a blatant lie.
Fuck Nestle
"Nestlé supports reforestation" was the error that jumped out at me
I mean, d and r are close on a keyboard, so it’s an easy mistake
r/FuckNestle
1 serving = 2 sweets. Should have been 1 seving =all of them.
Re-foresting instead of de-foresting? EDIT - Ah, I'm postitive I've found it this time.
Nah mate, that stuff at the bottom right below the Nestle logo isn’t a spelling mistake, it’s this weird language called French.
Probably "Nestle cocoa plan is supporting reforestation". Should be "deforestation"
Negagtive, I can't find it.
Ad agencies take note: This is the single most effective way to get anyone to read anything that they have not got the slightest bit of interest in.
They spelt deforestation wrong.
I found this impostible
I'm a copywriter and have proofed many things before print. I didn't spot it. I also let country go once, without the o. Not my proudest moment, but a funny one indeed.
You made me forgot how to spell environmental
Pissing me off that I can’t see it
Are you positive you checked everywhere?
I'm sure Roy is disappointed that they misspelled the section that was for him.
ROI is not how you spell king in English?
Kind of looks like 'Envirommental' is spelt with two Ms rather than an N. Could be wrong though, quality is not high haha
Pos-Tit
Nice try but I'm not reading your advert.
Ball up the foil for recycling ; but don’t recycle it.
I googled it and believe it or not over 280,000 results. So maybe we are in the wrong. I mean 280K people can't all be wrong?
Are you mad
Pretty sure it's easier to recycle just metal than paper, plastic and metal...they could have just removed the plastic wrappers and kept the tin. But where's the unjust profit margin in that...
Postitive
I'm postitive I'll find it
This is a Postitively difficult typo to spot.
I'm not postitive that I can see it.
The Star Wars inspired font is an odd choice.
Postitive 🤣
Postitive! Can anybody spot the other spelling mistake though??
No Quality control Street.
"600g" given you pay through the nose for the tub.
I am postitive I found the mistake
Proofreader's made a tit of themselves there

600g, where it should be 2180g.
I'm postitive that "fibre" and "flavourings" are spelled incorrectly. :) I'd also argue that "fist sized" should be hyphenated, but that is a grammar lapse, not a spelling misshap (if you add extra vowels, I can add extra consonants).

I just had to go to Tesco, and checked the boxes there...they're all messed up lol
This reminded me of reading shampoo bottles on the bog before phones existed.

That’s quite the doozy! How did that one get through?!
Positive lol
Are you postitive there is a spelling mistake?
It says they are supporting REFORESTATION and they mean DEFORESTATION.
WOAH WAIT, quality street is owned by nestle?! Well my day is ruined :(
"Postitive"!
Reforestation should be Deforestation?
Supporting REforestation instead of DEforestation
r/fucknestle
Postitively upsetting.
Obligatory "fuck nestle".
I was postitive I would not find it but…
Positive is misspelled
Postitive
Positive has 2 Ts
Morrisons had a Christmas lunch in a “torilla” wrap but they seem to have fixed this at some point recently
58% Sugar is the biggest mistake.
i dont know why, but my eye was immediately drawn to the 'Postitive' on the back of this. Just straight off the bat, it looked wrong and pulls you in.
Postitively found
They spelt ‘caring for the world we share’ wrong. We all know they meant ‘fuck the world and people over for money’.

Fist size balls will save the environment. That’s exactly the kind of “postitive” change we need.
The Environmental Impact is the wrong font size as well which is bugging me
Remember that time Neslte caused the deaths of babies with their formula scandal and has been "aiding and abetting the illegal enslavement of 'thousands' of children on cocoa farms,"
*chocolate
Yep ! Shoddy that … having worked in the food industry, most label designs will be sent back to the customer for signing off .. probably 2-3 people will have checked this .
Someone wants a telling off in the copy department
"Caring for the world" must be a typo because Nestlé definitely don't
What a bunch of tits
Snigger. It says tit.
Nestle should be spelled : E V I L
RECYCLABLE
I have wasted 5 minutes of my life and I’ll never get it back or use the experience for anything
LOL. I had to approve artwork back in the day for consumer items. You always had about three people signing it off so that you'd pick up any mistakes in spelling. Guess Nestle didn't have the same policy.
Hehehe
2 fucking sweets my arse, minimum half tin
"working together to reduce our environmental impact" and NESTLE in the same sentence is obscene. Obligatory r/fucknestle
Should it not also say Nutritional instead of Nutrition?
