No more dumping with uncertainty

Pumping and dumping is over, my friends. Now you can know with certainty if the milk you have is too alcohol laden for consumption by tiny mouths. My friend Peter helped design a SIDS monitor for this company, and turned me on to their Milkscreen product. Dip a little strip in your milk and see if it has unsafe levels of alcohol. If so, I guess you have some weird drink mixer.

They define unsafe levels as anything above 0.03% alcohol content, and claim that is the level that the baby's eating and sleeping behaviors are affected. So, she may slur at 0.01% but won't get grumpy until 0.03% I guess. To be safe, Milkscreen gives you a warning if your milk has 0.02% alcohol in it.
