 I read further down to the first comment on the page and it stated that HFC is typically found in Soy and Lactose-free formula?  I just checked my Similac Advance, and thankfully no HFC listed on the ingredients.

Yeah, I went back and read that too. It is mostly non-milk based formulas, but it's alot of big names. It just blows me away the amount of items they are trying to sneak HFCS into! My sister only uses Soy, so I called her and told her to check and sure enough it is the SECOND ingredient on the list of the forumla she uses for my neice. I did a quick search and found that most organic soy and lactose free formulas do not contain it, but they are usually way more expensive, and not WIC approved.

Gag, I try so hard to keep this stuff out of my life, I would have never even thought to look at baby formula as a source of it.
