The activists are dressed in black suits with tights over their heads and holding baby dolls with funnels as heads feeding Nestle products into them. The banner reads "Shut up and eat, stop genetically engineered food!"In original language:Gentechnik Aktion bei Nestlé Hauptsitz«Nestlé – Stop Genetically Engineered Food!» Mit dieser Forderung protestieren heute Morgen 50 Greenpeace-AktivistInnen aus acht Ländern vor dem Hauptsitz des Nahrungsmittel-Konzerns Nestlé in Vevey. In dunkle Anzüge gekleidet trichtern sie Baby-Puppen Gentech-Produkte von Nestlé ein. Auf einem Banner über dem Haupteingang schreit ein schwarzer Nestlé-Vogel die KonsumentInnen an: «Maul halten und schlucken!» Gleichzeitig finden Protestaktionen in Bangkok, Manila und Hong Kong statt, wo Nestlé gegen den Willen der Mehrheit der Bevölkerung nach wie vor genmanipulierte Nahrungsmittel (GVO) verkauft. Nestlé weigert sich sogar, diese Produkte zu kennzeichnen, wodurch die KonsumentInnen nicht einmal die Möglichkeit haben, diesen ungewollten Produkten auszuweichen.Locations:Alpine Countries-Switzerland-VeveyDate:6 Jun, 2002Credit:© Greenpeace / Ex-Press / David AdairMaximum size:2362px X 1535pxRestrictions:Images ok for use in all Greenpeace campaigns, products and brochures.

These are mainly sold in Asia, and the GE ingredients are many times not identified as such on the packaging. The activists are dressed in black suits with tights over their heads and holding baby dolls with funnels as heads feeding Nestle products into them. The banner reads "Shut up and eat, stop genetically engineered food!"This kind of action is also taking place in Bangkok, Manila, and Hong Kong today. Nestle is refusing to make their products identifiable as 'genetically engineered', and thus giving the consumers no freedom of choice.
