With half of nation's production volume, hopefully Abbott gets up and running next week. With the intense environmental and finished product testing that they'll be required to have going forward, it will probably be the safest product on the shelf.

Wow….. entering the thread with just a question that shows ignorance on the topic all the while laying down judgement at the same time.

Here is a similar question; how did humans manage through the millennia before ‘penicillin’/‘low sperm count’/‘broken legs’/‘birth defects’/‘list can go on’?

Can you now see how ‘stupid’ your question is?

Infectious diseases, inflation, baby formula, what else?

The expertise on every subject possible by our resident repubtards is truly astonishing.
JIF peanut butter recall and them making a reimbursement process nearly nonexistent. We have close to $30 of recalled product in the house.

Usually any chain grocery store will reimburse you.
Maybe but JIF should bear the burden to make it right rather than a grocery store. They started by telling people to just throw it away and no communication about a refund. Now they've moved to filling out a generic product question form after a Twitter beatdown.

Sunscreen manufacturers had a fillable form last year for the high benzene recalls that you listed UPC, lot number, and quantity. JIF should be able to do the same.

Not exactly sure.
Threads like what? Thread started by someone saying their formula was recalled. Why would anyone think babies shouldn’t be fed?
No, anything that someone can try to turn political. Making fun of special needs people or with learning disabilities really ticks me off.

Here, for those who may be interested, is an interesting dialogue between two MDs on the topic of infant formula:


Both of these look like total quacks and neither have any business commenting on this as neither are remotely pediatric/child dieticians. Just because they are MDs doesn't make them experts in this space. I get that you're a Boomer and this is news to you but be skeptical of everything you see on the internet.


Jfc they're recommending making your own formula. This is insanely dangerous disinformation. I'm reporting this, you should delete. Christ, take 2 seconds to Google vet your own ****.

What could go wrong? I mean they have issues making formula safely in food grade facilities, I think making it in your dirty ass kitchen should be fine.

I might’ve missed something since I didn’t watch the video, but what’s the difference between making bottles of store- bought formula and the substitute from store bought ingredients in the same dirty ass kitchen?

Young people ARE dumb.

School standards lowered in general. Schools spending too much time raising kids instead of educating them, because parents not doing the work.
Way too easy to have fun without effort (phones, games, netflix) so no grit.

There's exceptions, but Idiocracy is here, now.

Its over. We lost.

I completely disagree it’s the kids’ problem. If you actually look at what kids are being asked to do now in school, they’re being asked to do things earlier than we were.

Idiocracy may be here, but kids aren’t the reason
