Looks like a splice between rolls or print runs. Usually there are photo eyes to detect them and they get culled. Sometimes, especially on wrappers with low contrast the difference between brown and black is not enough and photoeyes will miss.

Also, fuck Nestlé. Their qc probably got cut for more profit.

Means there is a gas buildup. Which, in turn means bacterial growth. Throw it away immediately.

Considering that these packages are sealed under inert gases (mostly nitrogen) probably the seal was defective.

However, I would also record the batch number and check other cartons of the same batch for any signs of spoiling. Keep in mind that the entire batch may also be contaminated.
