Click to ENLARGE. From ‘Amazon U.K’ using my ‘Amazon U.K’ logon account.

I was curious. Luckily, I am NOT in need of baby formula. I do, however, feel real bad for those that are in need of formula right now.

That is what prompted me to see if I could buy any from the U.K. ‘Amazon U.K.‘, for that matter Amazon in any country will ship internationally. I do have an ‘Amazon U.K.’ logon since I do buy things in the U.K. — mainly to ship to folks in the U.K. or Europe. THINK books — my books. SMILE.

As far as I can ascertain there is NO baby food (i.e., formula in Europe talk) shortage in Europe.

Yes, I understand that European baby formula is NOT approved, by the FDA, for use in the U.S. But, ….

Think. If you were on vacation in Europe, you could, of course, buy baby food there — for your needs. IF you happened to bring some containers back, I am NOT sure that customs would stop you. It is in powder form. But, I don’t know.

Well, from what I can see — & I also checked Amazon France — Amazon is CLAIMING that they are out of stock.

I would NOT buy baby formula on eBay! Oh, No!
