Exactly four years ago, when I transitioned my first son from breastfeeding to formula at seven months, I remember standing in the Walmart aisle feeling as though I needed a chemistry degree to choose a formula.

If your baby drinks formula, that can be most or all of what they eat. It makes total sense that you want to know what is actually in it—not just what the label or brand promises.
