Hi friends,

Tell me if I'm reading this wrong, but my "read" on the Stonyfield/Danone Waters history is that Nestle is no longer involved! Aquaterra bought the business FROM Nestle in 1992.

Please tell me this is correct, as I'm not sure I can get my dh to quit eating Stonyfield Farms yogurt!

Smiles,

Carol
