"At the same time, in my presentation on how breastfeeding is portrayed in
the media by various groups, such as formula manufacturers, bottle makers,
etc., I have many Avent ads.  They are SO EASY to make fun of -- and they
are not at all supportive of breastfeeding, even while they claim that they
are."

Indeed, and for that reason the ads of Avent are taken up in the IBFAN report:
Breaking the Rules, Stretching the Rules 2001 , Their ads are labeled as a
"substantial violation" of the WHO-code.

with pleasure.
