Sure they do own many companies. I just dont think its impossible, as I steer clear of anything nestle. Sometimes I grab something new and sounds interesting like the Vegan products by Gourmet Garden and just putting it quickly back as I saw nestles logo printed on the back.

It takes a bit of discipline.

Lol, no, you don't understand. Companies (literally millions of them) own many other companies that they never put any logo on or anything. For an outside of Nestle example, check out this list of companies owned by Kroger that you will never find anything labeled by Kroger inside of:

Also this list may be VERY incomplete because it's hosted by Kroger and they have no obligation to give the entire truth here.

I've never seen Kroger nor any of that companies. Do they sell in Germany?

And if the umbrella company is proud of thier products they bought, of course they put their label on it or state it somewhere. Where else would be the point of it? Brand recognition and all.

Kroger is a grocery store chain in the US, I suspect they don't operate in Germany but I might be wrong.

They basically are or own many different grocery store chains across most of the US.
