 * Have changes been made since that report (which was 2001) and what is different? The Seventh-day Adventist Church in Australia which goes under the business name of Australasian Conferencing Association has been incorporated since then and now Sanitarium is owned by a separate business, Australian Health and Nutrition Association. This makes me suspicious that changes have occured. Anyone have any clues? MyNameIsNotBob 00:15, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure it does get some tax cuts. However, it does not support the church in Australia - it supports it in the Pacific islands. -Colin MacLaurin 14:55, 2 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Please look more closely into the tax exemption issue, as in Australia at least, the tax exemption is likely to stem from the company being owned by a socially benevolent incorporated association, which can be either religious or non-religious. What is important is to obtain and read the Articles of Incorporation for the incorporated associations, and find out what the Objects of the Associations are.

Sanitarium Products List Incorrect
Weetabix is listed as a Sanitarium product in the UK and USA - they don't make it and do not own the Brand Name - The Weetabix Company Limited in the UK is teh owner of the brand- and are not associated with Sanitarium. The Sanitarium product is Weet-Bix. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weetabix_Limited There are current issues in New Zealand with Sanitarium blocking imports of Weetabix on the grounds that it infringes the Trademark they own (weet-bix)but they do not own, nor have they ever owned Weetabix. http://www.ipo.gov.uk/t-find-number?detailsrequested=C&trademark=2060869--202.174.163.135 (talk) 06:47, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

article biased??????????????
reading this article just seems like one big advertisement. there is a very small amount of information about the company, the bulk of the article is its brand names.

Article's Accusatory Tone
Does the opening paragraph of this article really need to be a huge bold statement about how the company does not pay tax? This seems to be a bit accusatory and biased. Surely the opening paragraph and general lead in should be a statement about who and what the Sanitarium is, not a statement about its tax exempt status??? HappyGod (talk) 07:54, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
 * That was recent vandalism. I've just removed it. Also in the future please put new conversations at the bottom of talk page, not the top. :) Freikorp (talk) 12:07, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I've moved it into correct sequence. Bjenks (talk) 14:44, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

company name
sanitarium in the US means an insane asylum or mental hospital! does it not carry the same meaning in the UK or Oz?
