Sadly, there is a 100% foolproof answer to this dilemma, which none of these career-obsessed yuppie witches would ever pause for so much as a microsecond to consider...

Yuppies seem to be the most aggressive breast feeders. They spend money on high-tech breast pumps and store milk for later use. There always seems to be one new mother in the office stashing bags of milk in the break room freezer for later use.

It’s the lower classes that seem to be big on formula. The people in the store buying formula also seem to use WIC checks and food stamps.

Sorry, to lump all who use formula into a group of folks who don't care just doesn't cut it.

Women who have poly-cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) can have problems with milk production, if they're lucky enough to have kids to begin with.

This condition can has also been recently investigated as a cause of colic in kids who feed on the breast-milk.

Some use formula as their only option.

While my breastfeeding credentials are as solid as any woman’s, I think that’s a little unfair. Not everyone can breastfeed.
