Well, I’m not Olivia; but I think she knows what to do, should the issue come up :-)

I’ve done that. My husband doesn’t like it because it doesn’t dissolve in cold water the way he wants.

But it’s certainly useful to know.

No, but I’ve made wine. Never again - stuff turned out so potent, I had my first and only real hangover.

“Whiskys too rough
Champagne coats too much and vodka puts my mouth in gear but this little refrain should help me explain as a matter of fact I like beer''.

I have heard, not able to confirm, that a few really big players in the class of billionaire contributors to the DNC bought up some of the US manufacturing capability and created this shortage for their own benefit. Jus’ speculating. Anybody??

Here is an article from Washington Post. I am not an expert in this case, but have been watching other sources. The 3 giant firms “allowed” to make baby-formula for Government Welfare/WIC programs are all big, publicly listed pharma-food companies (Abbott, Mead Johnson, Nestle)

its a perfect example of the crony-capitalist, proto-fascist nanny-state rigging a market, and controlling and regulating a product into shortage.
