Most infant formula goes to the Third World, where it causes the most problems: ie., malnutrition and poverty (because infant formula is fâing expensive, relative to salaries). The worst thing about it is that, because most people in the âtarget marketâ are woefully uneducated and the sales pitch is slick, they lap it up. They genuinely believe formula is the best, and prioritize money for buying it.
Meanwhile, in the West, the message about formula milk being second-rate has mostly got through, and not many people are interested.
