Baby formula shortage in US

A big plant (Abbot in Michigan) was put on pause by the FDA. After some reports of infection after babies ate certain baby formulas.

Baby formula is the most regulated food.

Some have talked about how we may have a strategic security stockpile of energy, but not of food.

You can make your own formula, but just be careful.

For babies age 0-3 months:

-(non-fat free) evaporated milk: 1 can of formula to 4 of water
-Boil to homogenize

That's it. But you can also add (sold as liquid form) vitamins.

Store in the fridge and use for 24 hours. Not more than 24 hours (dispose of it), because it will start to grow mold/bacteria.

For babies aged 3-6 months:

-1 can of evaporated milk to 3 cans of water. (ie less water)

For babies aged 6-9 months:

-1 can of evaporated milk to 2 cans of water

9 - 12 months:

-1 can of evaporated milk to 1 can of water

ALWAYS boiling to hemogenize. ALWAYS dispose of it after 24 hours.
