Hi Sue
I work at WIC as well, and I use this poster all the time
it's wonderful, and really hits the point home to the new and expecting moms!
I believe it came from CA, so thank you!!

Subject: Re: Exclusive breastfeeding
After 25 years working in lactation, I recently went to work for WIC.
Aside from being generally impressed by the overall quality of the breastfeeding material WIC is producing, there is one handout/poster in particular that I have noticed makes a big impression on our participants.
We call it the "Legos" poster. Many times I have had someone say, as they sat gazing at this poster, "I had no idea there were so many differences between breastmilk and formula."
Kudos to whomever dreamed up this poster. You can see it here:
http://www.cdph.ca.gov/programs/wicworks/Documents/WIC-EdMaterials-HowDoesFormulaCompareToBreastmilk.pdf
Although this poster does not specifically warn parents about the dangers of formula, it goes a long way towards putting breastmilk into context for parents.
