...Henri Nestlé AKA Heinrich Nestle Born: 10-Aug-1814 Birthplace: Frankfurt am Main, Germany Died: 7-Jul-1890 Location of death: Glion, Switzerland Cause of death: Heart Failure Remains: Buried, Territet, Montreux, Switzerland Gender: Male Race or Ethnicity: White Sexual orientation: Straight Occupation: Business Nationality: Switzerland Executive summary: Invented infant formula Born in Germany, as a young man Heinrich Nestle moved to a French-speaking area of Switzerland, where he changed his name to the more French-sounding Henri Nestlé. Working as a pharmacist's apprentice, he became concerned about infant mortality, and created a source of nourishment for babies who are allergic to mother's milk. After his farine lactee -- a dry mixture of cow's milk, sugar, and chemically-altered wheat flour -- saved an infant's life in 1867, Nestlé began marketing the first commercially-made infant formula. He retired in 1874, only seven years after founding his company, and Nestlé's chocolates and candies, coffees and seasonings, frozen foods and pet foods and dozens of other products were all added after the founder's death. Ironically, Nestlé's first product has become its most controversial. Nestlé (the corporation, not the man) has been criticized for marketing infant formula in third-world nations, where the "just add water" instructions are dangerous because local water frequently carries disease, and where poor and uneducated parents might not understand that unless...
