    Nestle corporation giving away free baby formula in third world countries, to new mothers. The mothers would give their babies this product that they were told was better for their babies than breast milk. then their breasts would dry up. They couldn't afford this product and couldn't provide milk on their own, many, many babies died. I believe the UN got involved, I first learned about it in the 80's but I believe it went on for many years.
