pasteurized breast milk is basically the very best 'formula'." "I'm
sorry, but by your definition I would say that _pasteurized_ breast milk
is formula. The pasteurization is a 'manufacturing process' and there
could easily be mistakes in temperature or time measurement." "... From
my family's experience, even the type of pasteurization can make
noticable differences in cow's milk. "

I can't believe these statements are being made on lactnet!  If there
were any truth to those statements, the formula companies would have
plastered them on the front pages of magazines and advertisements.  I
think that most lactation and health care professionals prefer to use
evidence based studies and reports rather than making professional
judgements based on their own family's taste preferences.
