French Government and Nestlé Accused of Cover-Up in Perrier Water Scandal

For over a century, Perrier has been a symbol of luxury and sophistication in mineral water, but now the renowned brand is facing a backlash over its claims of being "natural mineral water," which have come under scrutiny due to regulatory violations involving filters and UV treatment. Nestlé Waters, the French parent company, was accused of altering water from wells in Provence to meet marketing standards despite breaking legal guidelines, leading to accusations of a cover-up at the highest levels of government.
