I found the following especially interesting in light of the discussion on  
the Good Morning America program regarding donated milk. It seems that no  one 
on the show bothered to mention any of the hazards of infant formula. This  
was on the FDA website this morning:
 
PRODUCT
Mead Johnson Nutritionals brand Enfamil  LactoFree with LIPIL milk-based 
infant formula, lactose-free, iron fortified,  concentrated liquid in a 13 fl. oz. 
can. Sold in cases of 12 cans each; case UPC  3-0087-0614-01. Recall # 
F-132-5.
CODE
USE BY 1 AUG 04/ LACLIP/  AGA29.
RECALLING FIRM/MANUFACTURER
Bristol Myers Squibb Company,  Evansville, IN, by letter dated December 9, 
2003. Firm initiated recall is  complete.
REASON
May have an off-odor, clumping and product  separation.
VOLUME OF PRODUCT IN COMMERCE
6408  cases.
DISTRIBUTION
Nationwide.
 
I have added it to the list I keep of formula recalls since 1982. These are  
recalls, the only ones reported to the FDA and made public. Market withdrawals 
 of faulty formula are done without public knowledge.
