History

Between 1992 and 2003, products using the sub-brand Glik were sold to the Ultra-Orthodox community and were kosher certified by Edah HaChareidis.[2]

In 2015 and 2016, Unilever was criticized for significantly raising the effective price of Klik by reducing package sizes while retaining the previous price.[3][4]

In 2016 following an attempted coverup of Salmonella contamination in Unilever's cereal production line, sales of Unilever products, including Klik, plummeted.[5][6]
