    Baby milk controversy

    I have some women coworkers and a couple of years ago they were sitting in the break room lamenting how hard it was to find formula. I naively asked them why they didn’t breastfeed and they looked at me like I’d grown an extra head. It’s absolutely astonishing that after 200 million years of successful breastfeeding (which even gives us our “mammal” name), a corporation was able to convince women that no, they should be feeding their babies with shit from a can made in factory.
