Baby formula shortage not a problem in Mexico, parents say
2022-05-31
[FoxNews] Tijuana, Mexico, shelves stocked with baby formula, parents say.

#10  Hello women have breasts! WTF!?

North America's largest dairy goat farm is 10 miles to my east. Polar Hills Dairy Goat Farm.

Incredibly rich and almost no one is allergic to it. Even people who can't eat regular cheeses because of migraines can eat goat cheese.

In fairness I helped out there for 2 1/2 years.

#8  Remember the state WIC (women, infants, children) programs subsidize formula, et al. Welfare chits issued for formula are black-marketed(can I say that?) for cash or traded for drugs. So the subsidized manufacturing demand drops.

#7  Re: #2 and #3, thanks Skidmark, yhat was informative!

I notced the following statement from the second article above:

"It is important to note that baby formula is highly toxic and does not in any way resemble actual human breast milk. Most of it is loaded with health-destroying ingredients like corn syrup solids, high-fructose corn syrup, and various soy derivatives."

so it is looking like goat milk maynot be so bad after all.

Based on the first article, it seems that Almond Milk and and maybe boiled Cream Of Wheat, over cooked grit ( add a cup or so more water than normal) or watery rice porridge would be a good substitute for breast mil

YMMVk.

#2  What Parents Did Before Baby Formula
Posted by: Skidmark   2022-05-31 08:06  

#1  Mexico are not regulated by the FDA. thus they have no problem stocking on baby formulas.

Which kind of beg the question, what did parents feed the babies before baby milk formula was invented other than breast milk and wet nurses?
