I apologize in my last post, it was Laurie Wheeler that I was quoting and
not Nikki.
And I agree with what *Laurie Wheeler* wrote:
"I am not anti-WIC, it is supposed to be a nutrition program. I really
think
the WIC program should focus on the nutrition education for families,
healthy diets, obesity prevention and the like; give more groceries, baby
foods perhaps at 6 months, and breastfeeding support. Perhaps specialty
formulas for metabolic issues. But LET THE FAMILIES BUY THEIR OWN FORMULA.
My understanding is WIC started at a time that help for dairy farmers was
needed, so there is a focus on the milk. This has to stop in my humble
opinion."
