Bobbie Organic Infant Formula
I’ve been using Bobbie’s organic infant formula for almost 6 months. I’ve had formula directly from them, Target and Costco but I mostly order from Costco. Over the months I have noticed that they have two different manufacturers for their formula and the product doesn’t appear to be the exactly the same.
One manufacturer is based in Ohio and the other is in Georgia. The can will indicate who the manufacturer is. The OH manufacturer makes a formula that is packaged in a metal can, is more white in color and a softer powder that dissolves easier IMO. I notice that they use this manufacturer for their larger cans and have recently been using them for my Costco orders. The GA manufacturer packages their formula is a lined cardboard can and the powder is more yellow in color and a little grittier? I seen more undissolved powder in my glass bottles. This is the smaller cans that I get at Target, but last year I did receive them in my Costco orders.
I bring this up because this weekend, I started to notice a lot of dark particles floating in the formula. This is from my Costco order with the OH manufacturer. We opened another can and could see the particles in the powder. I was able to take a larger one out and it felt like plastic to me (didn’t get to take a picture). I saw online that scorched particles can be common and it’s safe to use, but my pediatrician office advised me not to.
Has anyone noticed this with their Bobbie formula? I feel like unsure using it and have been purchasing the GA manufacturer cans. The GA cans have not had this issue yet. I sent an email to Bobbie too to get their input.
