"Of course mother milk is the best, no doubt about that. Scientist found
that the "almost" ideal replacement is Almond Milk" 

well, this website is breaking the WHO / UNICEF Code.  this is a claim that 
is false and it is marketing something as a breast milk substitute.  Sure, 
maybe we don't want to spend our time tracking this down, but the case Chayn 
has described helps us understand why the Code is so vital for our work. 

Anything that is as a substitute for breast milk is coverd by the WHO Code. 

I don't suppose that the mother in this case would be impressed to know that 
the informative website is in breach of internationally recommended 
regulations voted for by every country in the world (except for 1 unable to 
legislate due to lack of central govt and another which has serious issues 
with the concept of internationalism).
