Kathleen mentioned a NY Times article today on formula samples in
hospitals.
Here is an interesting quote from that article:

"“Babies grow fine on it,” said Mardi Mountford, executive vice president
of the International Formula Council, who breast-fed her baby exclusively.
“And moms tell us they like getting the samples.”
