And they say the EU is good for nothing! Multinational corporations sell different versions of their products in different countries, but enough is enough!

Fico threatened to boycott brands over different (lesser quality) of products in V4 countries: German biscuits made for sale in Poland have less butter. Italian Nutella is more chocolatey in Austria than in Hungary.

I kind of get why companies do this, and why people feel cheated (remember the outcry over con syrup vs cane sugar Coca Cola), but mandating companies sell the exact identical version of food products sounds over the top.

I don’t know how you would label this properly. It kind of undermines the brand of Nutella if it means different things in different places. Nutella(5)? New Nutella?
