Child of the 50s..raised on this formula. My mom tried to breast feed me and I was crying all the time. A family friend and a mother herself, said "that baby is hungry". She sent my dad to the store with this list. She made the formula
I sucked it down and I slept for 4 hours.
When my last child was born in the 80s my husband had just started his own business and money was tight. Our pediatrician gave me this exact recipe and he thrived on it.
I fail to understand the reasoning for putting corn syrup in baby formula. This has to just be because it was the early 60s and back then people believed that shit was somehow good for you. Please do not feed your baby corn syrup lol.
Because they didn't know any better and were trying to discourage the "modern" woman from breast feeding. When that took off, then they knew they had a market for baby formula.

The problem with this formula now is that the Karo syrup is made from GMO corn guaranteed to screw up an infant's gut and God knows what else.
