We even looked into creating a healthy baby formula.

0:04.5

When I really dug into the weeds into creating something, there were all these legal things happening where you had to have X, Y, and Z, you had to have so much sugar, you had to have so much carbs.

0:17.6

And it had to be coming from, it had to be either brown rice syrup or it had to be corn

0:23.1

syrup and it had to have seed oil fats. We couldn't add olive oil and you couldn't get around
