Why are so many Americans complaining about a lack of baby formula? Don't mammals produce milk or some such?

It's kind of a perfect microcosm of the country. We can't feed our babies but we'll put you in jail for MURDER if you abort rather than have one you can't feed. Give every potential person a chance to suffer and die as the LORD intended.

Guess you don't have any kids

Breast feeding is for poor people

I have two kids -- used wife's mammary glands to feed em. All I had to do was feed my wife.

Her milk had a creamy texture and mild flavor, and came in a few varieties: sweetened, unsweetened, vanilla, and chocolate.

... some women can't nurse. they medically can't.

... some women are taking medications and it passes into breast milk and can't be shared with a baby.

... some women have a variety of psycho-social biases against breast feeding and elect not to do it. for them it is dirty, sexual, weird.

... some women can't produce enough milk. not every women is a gurnsey.

... some women are addicts. maybe the didn't use during pregnancy. or did. they want to keep their kid clean and safe.

... some women are sick AF. cancer. HEP. whatever.

... we have cultural taboos that make nursing other women's babies not a thing.

... some women have a hard time managing the whole breast feeding thing. socially it's considered weird to breast feed in public. some work places won't afford time and space for it. it's alot of work to pump, store, repeat, for kids in day care.

... some women have a freak show of other shit to deal with. i dunno. post partum depression and not killing themselves. their own medical shit after giving birth. the freakshow of childcare and family that existed before having a baby.

... the demonic food service and medical industries have conned alot of women into believing formula is better.

so. a tub of powder with a little scoop is a thing.

Not every woman can breast feed and not every baby will thrive on breast milk alone. A steady supply of infant formula can be a life or death issue for some infants.

Not all women can nurse. And, people adopt.

Yea so I guess women that work all day long can suddenly switch to breast feeding with milk that has probably dried up months ago.

Also so many babies now a days need certain formulas. I had a friend whose baby could only process one type of formula and another friend who just couldn't produce enough milk to feed hers.
Back in the 1890 maybe a wet nurse would be hired but thats not a thing anymore. Its also not sanitary.

Yes generally first time mums do produce breast milk but supply is not always guaranteed although all babies needs to feed so mothers who can’t produce enough will either supplement with formula.

Because they are stupid and small minded. Can't the military just go steal it from other countries, like they do oil and resources?

Joking aside, it's why there is a furore over the "baby milk storage at the border".

Well what else are we supposed to criticize Biden for? We need something!

Not all mother's can nurse, some babies are lactose introlante and need formula.

For those of you who are complaining that not all women produce milk, please be aware of two things. The first thing is, Corvus is a hyperintelligent bird from another planet, and doesn't really understand mammal stuff. The second is, you're arguing with a fictional character.

Americans aren't mammals, we are lizard people

[c=359E00]i think.. it's one of those 'breastfeeding is not a modern life style' thingy[/c]

When I was a baby I refused milk too soon and had to be fed baby formula.

*Me going over to the baby food isle just to look at the empty shelves*

Complaining 🤔. I think it’s in there constitution 🤷‍♂️

Working women's rights. No way.

Some people can't nurse. However they can buy formula. I was formula fed.

That said an undocumented immigrant with no money can't buy formula. Seeing as they have no money.
