What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world? (lemm.ee)

KitKat is Nestle. Fuck that, never give those cunts any of your hard earned money.

Doesn't really hurt Nestle. The supermarket will buy more inventory, giving Nestle money

Well it's moot anyway; I'm in the US where Nestle sold all their confectionary brands. I just noticed all the kitkats at the store I shop were branded by Hershey now and had to look up wtf. I noticed this before with another candy not too long ago, too. Didn't realize it was literally all their candy brands in the US.

Too bad I want them Japanese ones... 😩
