In my daily fieldwork I do enter a lot of BF-mothers who eat more beef (good for
the iron) and drink more milk, even if they don't like it. (good for the
calacium and the milkproduction). It is the ultimate marketingstrategy........if
you can't feed the baby directly with your products, make sure the mother who
feeds the baby thinks shé needs them.

Month after month I get more and more surprised by the influence of the
diary-industry in my country.

In a cynical mood,
