Nestle under fire after admitting 60% of its food product is unhealthy

International food companies are under pressure to do more to help the global fight against obesity. 

Nestle - the world's largest consumer food company and home to brands such as Kit-Kat, Nescafé and Smarties - has admitted that its products still "underperform" against "external definitions of health".

Consumer food giant Nestle is under pressure after admitting that more than 60% of its biggest selling products are unhealthy.

However, the significant range of baby food, infant formula and maternal nutrition product it makes in Ireland has not been included in that huge percentage, as only its mainstream food and drink products were assessed.
