I saw something new last night - a TV advertisement for Nutri-grain breakfast
bars that featured breastfeeding. It went by fast and I wasn't really paying
attention at first but the message was something (sort of, kind of) like this:
"You've made sure your baby had calcium (showing mom and baby nursing - from
behind the mother's back but it still looked sweet and warm) - for your older
child (camera switches to very cute ~4 yr old) you give Nutri-grain bars with
calcium."
We all hate to see baby bottles used gratuitously for marketing, but perhaps
this is a good thing. Breastffeeding is so attractive and normal that it can
be used to sell an unrelated product? I'd like to hear what all of you think
before I go buy bunches of Nutri-grain bars (um, they aren't made by N*****,
are they?)
