OK try these two sites:

Nestle Global Site http://www.nestle.com/#

General Mills http://www.generalmills.com/en/Company/Countries.aspx

Through our consolidated businesses, General Mills sells products in more than 100 countries, with offices or manufacturing facilities in more than 30 countries.

A box of Cheerios sits on the kitchen table.
A cup of Yoplait yogurt rests on the refrigerator shelf, and the sweet aroma of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls fills the room.

It's breakfast time in America. But whether it's morning in the U.S. or evening in Paris, consumers worldwide turn to General Mills products.

•Jus-Rol pastry in the United Kingdom.
•Chicken prepared with Yoki Seasoned Cassava Flour in Brazil.
•A special occasion treat of a scoop of Häagen-Dazs ice cream in dozens of countries.
Our brands are known around the world for quality, beginning with Gold Medal flour in 1880. To this day, Gold Medal remains the No. 1 selling flour in the United States.

Several of our other brands also occupy the No. 1 or No. 2 market positions – from Pillsbury refrigerated dough to Green Giant frozen vegetables, to Cheerios cereal and Betty Crocker dessert mixes.

As a state regulator I have seen small independent companies bought out by the mega corps... food is just one small part of their global empires.

So, Tom... try goggling a few of your favorite brands... see what you find.
