Hopefully there isn't a Boobie Shortage as well

All three of mine were raised on boobie milk for 8 or so months. Once they started getting teeth and biting, I was done.

Boy # 3 was allergic to milk, so I went on a dairy-free diet. Lived on meat, veggies, and tortilla chips & salsa. No pizza, no chocolate, no ice cream, good lord it was tough! When I bottomed out at 95 lbs, had to give it up and put him on formula. That is nasty smelling stuff!

The indigenous population of Africa, with their tribal mentality, are doing way more sketchy things in the dark continent than some European confectionary company could possibly do. But let's blame this on the colonists & outsiders. Europeans built thriving societies with schools, roads & other infrastructure. Then once African nations got independence, the natives let everything go to seed in less than 20 years.

Here's a list of the last 122 years of African dysfunction:


Sounds like when they took over running cities here.

Absent the outliers, attributed mostly to lazy mothers that cannot be bothered to take the time to be proper nurturers nature intended them to be.

Time to return to “milk aunties” and “milk siblings”. A friend my age had half the neighborhood as his milk siblings, because of shortages of formula.

How this works: one mother has above-average supply of milk. She either bottles it and gives it away or other mothers just bring their babies to her for from the tap feeding. Win-win for everyone.
Will they accept geriatric babies?

I am still on two retailers FB groups and it is often brought up that the most common items stolen from big box and drug stores are baby formula, laundry soap and shampoos, perfumes, personal products. People brazenly walk right out the door with them,
Many on these sites state they turn their heads the other way on baby formula since they person stealing is probably just trying to feed their babies. A small majority say no, they are stealing to resell.
On FB marketplace, I often see "lots" of laundry soaps, personal products and other brand new stuff that the cynic in me thinks were pilfered.
I don't know about the baby formula shortage problem but I hope it gets resolved.

Baby formula shortage hits 'crisis' level, sparking panic in parents across US

Moms and dads nationwide take to social media with pictures of empty store shelves



Parents of infants across the U.S. are taking to social media pleading for media coverage and political action while posting pictures of empty stores shelves, as the country's baby formula shortage continues to get worse.

"If the [mainstream media] can talk about the toilet paper shortage ever (sic) hour, they should be talking about the baby formula shortage at least," one new mom tweeted last week. "We ended [up] finding the Amazon brand online but not everyone is so lucky to be able to feed that. Please share. This is every store!"

The problem has gone beyond finding particular formulas that individual babies can tolerate. Several parents expressed trouble finding formula at all, and delivery is no longer reliable.

Fox News Digital spoke to a Michigan mom with young kids who said her last usual Amazon order for formula was delayed and ultimately canceled on Thursday, so she quickly went out and was frustrated to discover there was no formula to be found in at least four major stores in her area.
