This last recall of infant formula that actually contained an adult formula
is one of a long line of recalls and market withdrawals of infant feeding
products. From the high levels of arsenic found in some baby food jars to
dangerous bacteria and manufacturing errors, infant formula and baby food
remains vulnerable to manmade errors. Fortunately, nature has constructed a
pretty good natural food and feeding method.

I maintain a record of all the formula and baby food recalls in the US. If
anyone would like a copy let me know. I have used this document in numerous
discussions with hospitals and health care providers who mistakenly think
that infant formula is somehow exempt from unsavory manufacturing errors.
