Ross rep was in today and did a spill to the docs and nurse practitioners about their new lactose-free formula. I was with a mom and baby and missed out on hearing him, but docs and nurses were asking me questions about what the purpose of lactose in milk is, could lactose-free hurt babies, etc. It came to my mind that every Ross rep I have ever met in the pass has beat up on Mead Johnson because they make a lactose-free formula and they always add "there is lactose in breastmilk so kids need it." Now, they are making the stuff and singing a different tune. AAARG Can't wait till I see the rep to challenge him on this, not that it will change anything. Nice to have Jack back.
