"Nestlé has been criticised for adding sugar and honey to infant milk and
cereal products sold in many poorer countries. The Swiss food giant controls
20% of the baby-food market, valued at nearly US$70 billion.

Nadine Dreyer asked public health academic Susan Goldstein why extra sugar is
particularly bad for babies and how multinationals targeting low-income
countries with sweeter products get away with it."
