The most wholesome feed
For your babies is
Breast milk we know that we do
Nestle makes baby milk
And follow up, they
in poorer countries
Add sugar and honey
Can that save the day
Sucrose is present
It doesn’t seem fair
Adding refined stuff
That shouldn’t be there
It sounds like double standards
It is such a shame
Obesity problems
The name of the game
Throughout my life
I have boycotted them
Baby Milk Action
Where it does stem
From Asia and Africa
It’s just not fair
And more of the world
Should be made more aware.
