Whats the Nestle "hate" all about?

From my FB wall, an ex-BB member who adopted her son:

"They do [advertise/push formula] in Cambodia too. everywhere when I was there. My son was fed condensed milk as it was cheaper than formula Stuffed up his insides. He was not fed that by me nor an orphage, but by his birthmother before I adopted him."

I have heard this too... It's just bloody awful... It's insidious (& not so insidious) undermining of mothering/women's bodies. Less than 1% of women have an issue & these companies see the crack and jump in...

My friend fed her first daughter carnation milk as her MIL fed it to her two boys and "it never did them any harm"... Carnation is Nestle too I thimk yes?

Last trip to Bali my cousin proudly showed me her sample sachets of nestle formula, for her pending new arrival! I was feeding Z & she was a bit miffed by it all! She said she was told all Westerners feed their babies the bottle! I explained no, breast is best & formula is so exxy!!! She was shocked as they had gone to a private hospital & told to use bottle, like the tourists!!!!
