The country of Azerbaijan has become so angered by a free gift from a Nestle cereal that Nestle has withdrawn the cereal.
The free gift in question is a CD-Rom that carried information about different countries from across the globe. Unfortunately for Swiss based Nestle the information on Azerbaijan was in reference to the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. The information said that Azerbaijan started a war with Armenia in the early 1990's and that Nagorno-Karabakh belongs to Armenia.
Azerbaijan is saying that Nestle is supporting Armenia and have called for all its citizens to boycott Nestle products!
Nestle have given a formal apology but this seems to have done nothing to quell the issue.
Who ever thought that a simple free gift with a cereal box can cause such outrage to the point that a cereal company is being accused of joining forces with one country over another!
