Dear Lactnuts,

I've a very sad announcement to make: Numico (Former Nutricia, a leading
arttificial inant food manufacturer) had a article placed in a country-wide
newspaper stating: Artificial Babymilk now the same as mother's milk. They claim
to have scientific evidence within a short time that prooves that their renewed
formula matches human milk and will not cause colic in infants anymore.
Numico started in the US last year and is rapidly increasing its influence
overthere. Infant food is only a small part of there range, they also have dairy
products (chocomel/Cecemel [cholate milk], Fristy [yoghurt drink], baby starter
foods and drinks, bisvuits, children's cookies, sports nutrition [especially for
the US market]). Watch out for Numico, they play it the hard way and are as bad
as Nestlé. They openly admit to to anything to sell their products and will find
any possibilty within legal or near legal limits.

Sad greetings,
