Why Fonterra accepted defeat in the dairy aisle
OPINION: Fonterra's sale of its consumer dairy business to Lactalis is a clear sign of the co-operative’s failure to compete in the branded consumer market.
It was all very 1990s and brought back memories of Xena, Princess Warrior.
This old mutt reckons it also smacks of the privileged, self-righteousness infecting western society these days, where chardonnay socialists, fattened up on organic eggs and salmon bagels with almond milk flat whites, try and prevent the production of affordable food for the world’s hungry masses because they’ve watched too many Netflix ‘documentaries’ about how ‘the planet is burning’.
These woke idiots, fat and happy in their leafy suburbs, don’t know what it’s like to struggle to afford food, let alone get up early every day to grow it.
