"You know what I find ironic? People won't feed animals stuff that's artifical because it's not good for them. There are folks who won't feed hummingbirds red colored sugar water, but will stick it in their kids bottles. If it's not OK to do it to animals how can people justify it for their own children?"

Don't you think this is a bit extreme?
I tried - but I couldn't do it.
Some women do not produce enough milk.
Some women are on medication that prevents them from passing the drug along through breastfeeding.
Some people adopt babies and have to bottlefeed.

To equate bottlefeeding with red sugar water is a little strange.

I understand that there are situations where a woman cannot breastfeed and in those cases the babies have to eat or starve. That's not what I'm referring to.

Besides, I have actually seen BABIES, like about a year old, in stores and supermarkets with blue colored liquid in their bottles, the stuff that looks like light blue Gatorade.
