I moderate a breastfeeding board on a vegetarian website and AIM is often discussed on the parenting board. The misconceptions can be shocking when you consider that most of these folks are making the choices they do for health reasons. Meaning, of course, that they often think soy AIM is "healthier" than cow milk products!!!  OTOH, people don't usually go to work at a particular company b/c they are concerned about nutrition. And, of course, I have to say--it is only a matter of opinion that yogurt has anything to do with healthy eating--unless you are a baby cow who likes his milk processed. I guess my point is that where we might imagine that concepts connect, they often do not and even people who may care very much about health may not get it at all when it comes to infant feeding.
