European baby formula could be healthier than the U.S.

"And yet for all the regulations that the FDA imposes on US formula manufacturers, corn syrup is allowed as the first ingredient in many formulas. In our minds, baby formula should consist mostly of milk, and yet there are brands in the US which contain corn syrup solids as the very first ingredient....In Europe, no corn syrup is allowed. Cows and goats are fed organic, grass fed diets, and the main ingredient in formula is - drum roll - milk. There can be no detectable levels of pesticide residues in European formulas. Zero. Most US baby food wouldn’t be allowed to be sold in Europe as it either has pesticide residue, or contains other unwanted ingredients, such as corn syrup or sucrose."
