Nestlé withdraws ‘Offensive’ Advert Campaign

Nestlé has cancelled an online publicity campaign in Morocco after it was branded sexist on social media.

  The mini-series, titled I Want to Get Married, featured five young women competing to win a husband by impressing his mother.

 The first episode saw the would-be brides asked to make a dessert using Nestlé condensed milk.

  Nestlé says it “sincerely regrets” that the content offended some viewers.

  A number of Moroccans had lambasted the campaign, saying it was degrading and outdated to pick a wife based on her cooking skills.
