In the USA, most alcoholic beverage manufacturers run ads telling kids
(under 21) not to drink and ads about not drinking and driving. I am sure
they are in it for the positive image, but I don't think it is the same
thing as Nestle putting out breastfeeding info. First of all, the alcohol
companies only say not to drink and drive and not to drink if underage;
they do not give misinformation about how to schedule tea drinking in an
effort to get people to drink beer. I also don't see them giving out free
beer at Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. What I am trying to say is that
even Budweiser is not as bad as Nestle.
