This Mega-Merger Could Make All Your Favorite Snacks More Expensive

- Another mega-merger would make food even more expensive. Two of the largest snack makers-Mars and Kellanova-are planning a $36 billion merger. This could drive up the price of M&Ms, Snickers, Pringles, Pop-Tarts, Cheez-Its, Eggo, pet food and hundreds of other products.

Imagine how cheap all of our food could be if they stopped turning 70% of our real food into absolute garbage.
Yes, and also our pet foods
It's actually cheaper for them to turn healthy food to junk olive oil is a prime example most of it is cut with seed oils which are cheaper and very unhealthy.
When I lived in England food was cheaper and of higher quality than what is available in the midwest. Americans should be angry and demanding better.
I stopped eating Ultra processed foods, and avoid processed foods as much as possible. If you stop buying, maybe eventually they will provide healthier choices.
I stopped buying mayo, and salad dressings. I make them from scratch. They taste better, and are better for you.
It's all garbage made of the worst and unhealthiest ingredients .
too bad it's delicious
Enforce antitrust laws! It's that simple!

You're demanding that people who benefit from trusts to enforce laws that they benefit from by not enforcing. Almost every politician and official is compromised. That's a fool's errand. Better solutions are needed.
@@cdevidal Oh no doubt! I'm just saying that if most of them had a shred of integrity, enforcement of the laws should be (relatively) simple.

There is already way too much corporate concentration in America. It not only means higher prices, but NO innovation. This is becoming a critical issue in the US, every sector has only a handful of players. There needs to be a massive breakup of these concentrated corporations.
Or worse, bad faith innovation
Innovation to take money from you
I don't disagree, but how do you suggest we do that?
Now that corporations have so much money and control anything we do to try and break it up will most likely have a negative effect on America. People will lose jobs, stock market can crash, or they will just move their HQ to another country and pay taxes elsewhere while still selling their products and services in America. And of course what politician is going to kill their career trying to push that kind of legislation. I imagine it's not something they would ever allow the people to vote on, it would be voted on by congress, I don't have much hope for such a thing to happen given the reality of how our country works.
@@joebullwinkle5099 I agree 100%
Exactly! Beautifully put!
Not all monopolies are the same. Standard Oil was able to control its prices because oil was basically a necessity during that time period. Most of this food is not. Stop paying for this garbage ultra-processed food and I promise you, the price will go down, or the quality will go up. Vote with your dollar.
Isn't it amazing that the public education system isn't providing the education and the critical thinking required to make rational decisions ?
Stop victim shaming and realize that it's the result of a carefully crafted system that goes far beyond than the choice made every few year by the electorate. Especially, given the fact that people can only choose to elect the best of two evils.
People, who like you, see themselves as being above the crowd without committing to any grassroot social actions are the worst of enemies of the victim of the system.
You're nothing more than a liberal.
You are right, but it doesn't really matter. This will happen to any commodity that people want. It doesn't really matter if it's a necessity or not (unless the government steps in). People want these snacks, the companies know it, so they'll raise the prices. Of course they'll come down if they become unpopular but the exact same thing will then just happen to whatever replaces it. There will always be something that people want and companies will clamor to buy up all the shelf space at the store for that object so they can control the prices and there's nothing we can do about it.
Price will go up and quality will go down. i don't know what your thinking.
@@theshi3152 Not if consumers stop buying them.

Its processed junk food, its not that serious. White people problems.
I've already quit giving them my money. Keep your snacks.
Yep ive almost completely stopped buying chocolate bars and most of the candy aisle selections.
Their snacks tastes like shit anyways
I'm not sure why anyone trying to be more class conscious would give money to corporations unless there's just no alternative, like with housing. Trash food is literal poison. It's harmful to our bodies and our brains.
All that processed stuff isn’t even good for you. I think making the cost lower would encourage more people to buy leading to more illness and more health care cost. I wouldn’t even call these products food. I agree keep your snacks.
Let’s talk about stoping sugar addiction in our children. In some other countries they are not allowed to have cartoon characters on cereal. Let’s talk about how other countries have banned certain chemicals in their food to protect their population.
Yep, take the 3rd choice: find or make other, healthier, cheaper snacks.
Corporate greed.

@SgtJoeSmith tf? You understand they raise prices on everything, union or not you bafoon.
Knows no bounds
I hate the direction the country has been going -sh!t.. since I can remember, EVERYTHING has gotten WORSE and life has gotten more and more difficult -every year. The first time I noticed the closing vice of American Fascism was when congress sneakily passed a law (prob 10-20 years ago no) that allowed companies to charge bank accounts of subscription customers REGARDLESS of whether or not they have your debit card number, OR if you've cancelled your debit card. We used to be able to stop unwanted subscriptions and cyclic withdraws from your account by simply cancelling your card -NOW? nope. You have to jump through a million hoops just to ask for permission to have your subscription payments stop. I HATE IT HERE
Then move to a country that suits you better.
We are not a fascist nation.
Italy, under the leadership of Mussolini was Fascist.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
Study the different forms of government throughout World History for a better understanding of what the USA is. It is unique in that it provides the most freedom for the people.
VP Harris is a Marxist Communist, just like her father.
Her father's family OWNED BLACK PEOPLE as SL@VES to work their Jamaican plantation.
The USA hasn't been in this much peril since the Civil War of the mid 1800s.
These are perilous political times; merging treat and snack production is only a blip in the scheme of a coming potential political uprising of this once great nation.
@@silverhills5684 Online brainworms are a bi*ch, seek help.
I had that - ONCE. Changed the card but the withdrawl kept happening.
I went to the bank and said block that immediately. They didn't. I closed the account and went to another bank.
When I tell THEM to block a recurring billing they do.
My new bank absorbed the old one which disappeared entirely (rather than sneakily continuing to operate as 'competition')
Be grateful that at least junk food like these candies are getting more expensive. The last thing the US, any country actually, needs is more sugar and carbs!!
@@zerocal76my doctor recommended I shop on the perimeter of the store to help with my depression after divorce. No processed foods, only deli, produce, meat, fish and dairy, whole grains for bread, pasta, rice. Not only did it help my depression, I dropped 50lbs.
can we please boycott all this already?
1) cause corps dont need our money 2) we dont need the snacks 3) we need to make them bankrupt.
If only I am already hooked on the candy it’s a terrible addiction but my dentist loves me…
@@avi919191always time for treating the addition...
as for the dentistry... mouth health is very important. there is a strong link between mouth disease and heart disease ( from what i understand)
be careful with that.
The one thing u shouldn't be upset is this junk food cost. U don't know how bad it actually tastes bc it's designed to get u hooked. Stop eating it for a month and you'll throw it away after a couple bites (exactly what I did)!!

Time to quit eating snacks. Save your money AND your health!
It's like McDonald's. If this junk is gonna price me out, I'll just buy premium stuff and get higher quality.
I second that, the silver bullet for my weigh loss journey for the last year.
Just buy the premium now my friend dont eat this fake food@@MrVariant
Yep
we'll only be in trouble if they start buying up all the spinach and sweet potato. but this is america we're talking about that would never happen!
They are sliding towards monopoly. I hope the governments fights mergers of this scale/impact.
They already ARE monopolies, 10 “food” producing companies, 4 meat producing companies. . .

Plus they aren’t on competition they are in colusion

A good reason to normalize worker co-ops and unionizing. And maybe grow your own food, eat more plant based foods and not so much junk food.
Do companies get initial investment capital with worker co-ops?
Every item mentioned, my doctor warns me to avoid. Thank you for giving me the final nudge.
Exactly
Stop the monopolies
America is going to be a handful of companies that owne everything. It's real sad that politicians just follow the stock markets needs and can't think long term. They only have a quarterly thinking capacity
If your snack food comes in a package and is comprised of over 10 unpronounceable ingredients, corporations are doing you a favor by raising the price, hopefully right out of your price range. Buy some apples. Buy some grapes. Buy some raw, unsalted nuts. Save some money and live longer. Eat real food.
great advice
And buy in season from local producers!
Apples contain chlorogenic acid, quercetin, phlorizin, asparagine, and pantothenic acid.
Just because you don't recognize a chemical name doesn't mean its not real food or its bad.
Fear the unknown! Wooooo!
@@Alsry1 I agree with what I think you're trying to say, but the only ingredient in an apple is apple. And I hope people avoid buying packaged apple, because the packaging is entirely unnecessary.
They've been doing this for years
And you really think Kamala will do something? Biden didn't, why would she?
They just need to enforce the laws on the books & block these fucking mergers
Or impose acquisition taxes.
no laws on the books against mergers. now unions striking demanding higher pay is extortion. so lets enforce that law.
@@RextheRebel theyll add it to price you pay like the 20 other taxes you voted for
@@SgtJoeSmith well it would be a disincentive to merge or acquire another company in the first place, making your argument moot.
@@RextheRebel what? Quite the opposite. Double revenue and eliminate 30% of jobs as overlap. It's a perfect way to cut costs
I have literally stopped eating ALL of those brands a decade ago. Good luck raising the prices as more can't afford anything.
*Chocolate bars are already HALF the size they use to be a decade ago: Soon, they’ll be the size of one of those Halloween mini bars!*
AREN'T THEY ALREADY THAT SMALL?
And they'll call it "Family size".
An they do not taste as good as they did years ago.
And they snuck in removing some mini bars and printing the amount and weight in the side of the packaging where no one can read it. I hate the shorter toilet paper roll we have to change more often. Thinking of switching to Japanese roll with a much smaller inner roll and very thin metal spindle
Vote with your wallet, not with your politicians
Umm also vote in the democrats. That’s the only chance you have of enforcing the antitrust laws
Don't buy em! Don't eat them! Vote with your wallet!
When voting with your dollars people with more dollars get more votes.
Also the point of this is to make them be the only option basically.
What happens when Not From The Merger is too expensive to stay surviveable?
Exactly. It's highly processed garbage anyway
@@youtubeuniversity3638There are more people with less to spend. What will the rich do? Buy a million candy bars?
i wonder if they think we just have infinite money to give them...
Genuinely they do.
Nah you got to feed their dark souls
Nah, they just know we can't not buy food, this is hostage taking pure and simple. We need to take collective action on this one and vote in new governements across the gobe that will punish harshly this kind of behaviour.
im late 40s and bought maybe 20 candy bars in my life. back when they were 25 cents as kid in 80s i didnt think it was worth it and rather save my money for legos or something else. you people act like your life depends on a daily candy bar
@@shorgoth you call that food? hostage taking is what unions do when they go on strike. corporations pay the ransom and bill the customers. thats how life works
Luckily we still have buying power! I'll never buy another product of theirs again.
I'll be honest, I don't really care about junk. I'm more worried about the rising prices of real food.
Real food until Monsanto/Gates own the patents on everything left that grows...
Mr. Monsanto is Biden/Kamala Ag secretary.
Eat less, lose weight, lowered healthcare cost. Wins all around.
Didn’t really buy them before but now I will make a point not to buy them…
It is wrong in every way, that being said I my family do not eat that garbage. Snickers had no chocolate, made from nothing but oil, dyes, chemicals.
Kroger's was just rated as #1 for having the worst grocery stores in Ohio, IN, MI.
Who was number one for best?
Brands I once bought, I no longer buy more than once a year or so. Partly because they cost too much, but mostly because I try to eat healthier - and I no longer consider a lot of these things healthy.
F corporate greed everyone hates corporate greed
Sales are also slipping because the prices are already too high
Corporate consolidation has never worked out for the consumer. Look at airlines, they've just gotten crappier, more expensive, and now run off a concept of making people uncomfortable while having them pay more to ease up on the discomfort.
Damn, I'll have to start eating real food.
some prefer starvation over real food
Helps us save money now and in the long run. We wont have as many health issues and medical bills if eat healthier now.
"Real food" has the same problem. Remember how expensive eggs got? There was no reason for that except greed.
?!
Wow, check out mr fancy pants with his "real" food. We all eating soylent green out here, it's all we can afford.
Don't eat junk food, it's that simple. Save yourself the trouble of heart disease, diabetes, root canals, and cancer.
Right, but it's not that simple. This country is addicted to these foods. There is a reason why the scientists from the cigarette industry, now work in the food industry...to make highly addictive, ultra-palatable food...for profit of course.
Let them take the unhealthy food and they'll edge their way into the staple foods. Give an inch, they take a mile. Maybe they'll acquire Quaker next, and your oatmeal will be 16 dollars for a big tin of steel-rolled oats.

Theyve been doing this since at least 1980. The age when i started having divide my precious coins into purchase decisions.
There’s no reason you should buy any of these products anyway
I very much doubt that already prices are way too high. They go any higher, and nobody will buy them
But they will buy them because they are hyperpalatable and addictive.
Nobody will be able to. Nobody but the rich people. Which is probably for the best. Definitely in our favor from a "health" standpoint 😉
They can have them they're not good for us.
Time to start growing your own food.
Good luck working full time and farming enough to feed yourself.
Good. Let this ultra processed crap get more expensive. Americans need to eat less anyway!
In the end it's pretty simple, a brand is nothing more than the goodwill it creates. When these brands keep jacking their rates for no good reason, it decreases the goodwill and people go elsewhere, brand be damned. Why do you think Aldi's and Trader Joe's are so busy right now.
What's the hidden reason behind the chemicals causing illness in fake food is the real question.

We also have to credit a devalued currency for that as well. It's not jyst "greedy corporations. "
Air tax
@@TinyCryptoBlogthe currency is devalued precisely because the market allows the supply side to raise prices unchecked. If it was really just a matter of inflation, wages would be up, too.
Womp womp. Don't care. Chips and snacks are a luxury not a necessity.
I’m not going to cry about these companies making these “foods” less attractive than they already are. The day skittles cost as much as a week’s worth of apples will be the day our country has a chance to finally start acting right.
Less garbage everyone has to consume
This won't effect sales much at all. Through all the mergers and all price increases over the last 40 years, has it effected their profits?
I'm doing everything I can to be as food independent as possible. Now I have more reason, thanks greedy corporate pricks.
The more prices rise on junk food the less i will eat. Its a win win for me and my health . But a lose lose proposition for this company when enough consumers like me stop buying their products.
Companies mindset used to be how can i get the best product to the consumer for the most competitive price. Now it seems like every company thinks how much money can i get from the consumer.
American foods have become such trash. Just loaded with fillers, chemicals, and everything bad. Nothing tastes like I remember it tasting years ago. I don't buy any American packaged foods or snacks. I tend to buy European brands of snack foods. You can find European brands that are still made with just a few NATURAL ingredients. As an example, I buy some hazelnut cookies that have about 6 ingredients. A similar American-made product would have about 40 ingredients, most you wouldn't even be able to pronounce.
The other bad thing, is that they'll look to recoup costs and eliminate products you love.
Worst case...don't eat these highly processed foods and be healthier and live longer
How, when the healthier food costs even more? You won't live very long without food.
"M&Ms, Snickers, Pringles, Pop-Tarts, Cheez-Its, Eggo" These foods need to be taxed into oblivion. Who f'n cares?
Ultimately, all this consolidation will lead to starvation
You go on ahead and trust campaign promises.
You're a fool to think a prosecutor that fought to keep innocent men on death row has us in mind.
"Food"
What they're pushing isn't food
As a non-american citizen (Iraqi citizen), I think that am blessed with my country's low-cost for everything 😅❤
Inflation leads to Hyperinflation. Resistance is futile. Acceptance is the last stage and when you accept that Central Banks have caused inflation, then you can begin to heal the economy.
Just stop buying this crap. Boycott. Real food is expensive enough. We haven’t bought this pet kibble for humans in years. Kids can eat carrots, raisins and oatmeal. Make your own from whole foods!
Raise the prices, reduce the amount of product per item. Rinse, wash, repeat.
They don't get any of my money now, so it matters not to me. The higher cost is not the only thing, their products will also cost you your health.
It should be illegal to sell shelf space, it's too similar to collusion between verticals. This merger would be okay if supermarkets were limited to having relationships with suppliers like every healthily-competitive industry where the supplier is not also a marketing customer at the same time.
Capitalism does not make sense anymore when each and every brand is asking a fortune.
Runway capitalism. To capitalize inherently means to be greedy, to grab more. Very anti-spiritual.
I've reduced my meat and processed foods consumption by 90% since the greedflation started, my wallet and belly are the happiest ever

We need to raise our voices high enough to be heard, so that several ignorant folks (who may not know anything about it) will be able to see through the lies (instead of them joining the cultists out of pure ignorance)

In a democracy there will never be such a thing as a law against greed. It's intrinsic.
Only in America do people complain about the high price of junk food and then complain about the price of insulin. I mean, unless you have Type 1, you did it to yourself. Maybe this will actually be a good thing to make highly processed and sugary junk food less desirable. A 5 pound bag of Envy apples is only $5 at Kroger this week...

All they are saying is “don’t buy our product anymore”.
why are we bringing political parties into this? I don't care if you're blue or red. I care that they're taking my money.
Because this channel has a left leaning agenda
Because Republicans have been fighting hard to curb regulation of the market and to gut enforcement of what few protections we have. If you care about who is costing you money, you should be paying closer attention.
Packaged granola bars and cookies got so expensive I started baking sheet pans of them myself. I couldn't believe how cheap it is to just bake it myself on a half-sheet pan. I paid $6 for a slab of cookies and about $10 for a slab of granola bars. (I put some fancy stuff in my granola bars.) Eventually people will just stop buying these super unhealthy, ultra-processed cancer-causing foods. It also became cheaper for me to go to the local bakery and simply buy a dozen donuts instead of buy packaged foods.
The FTC is also currently fighting against the merger of Albertsons and Kroger and will hopefully fight even more mergers and break up these monopolies.

The neighbors saw us crying and talked to the neighbors again and gave us a deadline until the end of the week and we swore to God to let us out of the street now we are in arrears of 60 thousand Yemeni riyals for 3 months rent may God have mercy on us our country is suffering because of this war and we do not find our daily sustenance and we live my mother and sisters our father passed away may God have mercy on him and we do not have anyone in the world to come to us in these harsh circumstances my little sisters went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stood at their door giving them even a piece of bread and by God in whose hand is the heavens and the earth they closed the door and kicked them out and they came back crying dying of hunger no one has mercy on them and now the holiday has come back to me if no one of us helps us with a kilo of flour by God we will die of hunger brother I seek refuge in God and then in you and I want your help for the sake of God I ask you by God you love goodness and help me even if it is about the rent of the house send me a WhatsApp message on this number +967711013075 and ask for my card name and send it and do not delay may God compensate you with all good My little sisters, look at their situation and help us and save us before they throw us out into the street and humiliate us or my family and I die of hunger. We ask you by God, if you are able to help us, do not delay on us, and may God reward you with good.'~~_«%•&»_~~_~&:»'////;&&;&;&;;&🎉😢😢😢😢;&;&&&//&..,!~~~♡♡♡~~~♡~♡~•~•~•~•~♡~♡~♡~;l.i.i.i.i.i.l.|-.............
Prices rising for that processed garbage is a blessing in disguise tbh
Good people need to eat less of this processed junk
Use your power as a consumer, if don’t like the price, don’t buy. They can only increase the price if people continue to pay.
Let their products spoil on the shelves...oh wait, no expiration date! Eww😮
Greed has become the focus of all major corporations. Government is doing nothing about it. Even worse, politicians conspire with the lobbyist representing the various special interests to keep fleecing the general public. Soon these practices will be terminated. Dan 2:44, Psalm 37:9,10.
They are just helping me not buy them.
