Greenpeace accuses Nestle of removing its "Orang Utan Kit Kat Ad" from Youtube

The video, which was just recently launched overnight, shows spoof of Nestle's KitKat ads plus an unwitting office worker taking a break to enjoy a KitKat but instead bites into an orang-utan's finger, causing blood to stream down his face.

The video can be viewed at www.greenpeace.org/kitkat.

"Nestlé today admitted that they have been using palm oil from the destroyed rainforest homes of the last orang-utans in some of their products, but having our video removed proves they are still trying to hide that fact," Greenpeace Head of Campaigns, Steve Campbell, said.

Steve later said this is an apparent intention to silence the truth and cover the fact that Nestlé's most popular beands use palm oil extracted from destroyed rainforest and peatlands.

"We'll continue to put the video up on other websites until Nestlé removes all rainforest destroying palm oil from its supply chain." He said.

Nestle's admission to using palm oil led to protests staged overnight across Europe at Nestlé 's headquaters and factories in the UK, Germany and the Netherlands.

Globally, Nestlé is a major consumer of palm oil.

In the last three years, its annual use has almost doubled, with 320,000 tonnes of palm oil going into a range of products, including KitKat, according to Greenpeace.
