It’s Greenpeace vs. [Nestle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-kitkat-bar) in their campaign against the chocolate tycoon’s source of palm oil for their popular chocolate bar, [KitKat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nestle-2). Greenpeace released an ad mocking the regulatory KitKat commercial of an office worker enjoying a KitKat bar.

Instead hearing the satisfying crunch or snap of the KitKat, viewers are treated to a view of the officer worker chowing down on chocolatified orangutan finger as it spurts out bloods. Check out the ad while you can, as Nestle has already removed it from [Youtube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feastables).
