Formula findings?

We think we might've figured out something with her not liking formula. The second-last can of mix we bought was Meijer brand without DHA & ARA, which are some special nutrients thought to help with brain and eye development. Well, she's not getting so much formula these days so we figured it didn't matter what we bought. Well, she really liked it, more than she's liked any other formula. After we ran out of that, we could only find Meijer brand with DHA & ARA, and she doesn't seem to like it at all. So do DHA & ARA taste bad? We're not sure...I don't recall if I really tasted the non-DHA/ARA stuff, so I can't say anything other than "maybe."

There are other brands without the DHA&ARA, but Meijer is cheaper (a LOT cheaper). She's been getting some milk lately and seems to be having less trouble with it than she did before, so we might just move her to milk pretty soon and bag the whole formula thing once for all.
