My mother told me, her mother told her, and her mother told her that, right?

So these ideas are not new.

They're sort of the old ones, right?

And as opposed to, say, something like, you know, infant formula, right?

So there's a period of time where

People were like, oh, infant formula is better than breast milk, right?

How long did that last?

Like 10 years at the most, right?

Breast milk has been around for thousands of years until the 70s when we convinced mothers that they should not breastfeed.

They should feed their kids formula because formula was better than breast milk, right?

And it seems strange, but it actually took a concerted effort in the 90s.

And this was the breast is best campaigned.

to convince mothers that breast milk was better than infant formula.

Like, that sounds so weird now because, of course, that was very successful because everybody's like, yeah, duh, right?

Sort of like the butter debate, right?

for humans were eating butter for thousands of years.

And then in the 70s or 80s, they're like, no, you should eat margarine.

It's like, yeah, that margarine was not good.

It was not good for you.

It didn't taste good.
