minus-squarepeterpan520@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoI always thought Milka was from Germany or Switzerland. Originally, it was indeed Swiss, founded in 1901. However, the brand was acquired by Kraft Foods in 1990 and later became part of Mondelez International in 2012, a U.S.-based company.
minus-squareDiplomjodler@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoYeah that’s the one thing I’m really going to miss. Milka has always been my favourite chocolate.
minus-squarepeterpan520@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoIf you liked Milka, you should try Lindt! It’s from Switzerland.
minus-squareDiplomjodler@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoLindt is right next to Milka on every supermarket shelf here. But I’ve always preferred Milka.
