peer agreement (net): +3milk flour Explanation: Farinha láctea é uma mistura de leite em pó, açúcar e farinha: http://www.websters-dictionary-online.com/translation/Portug... http://www.websters-online-dictionary.org/definition/milk fl... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Nestlé Henri Nestlé combined cow’s milk with wheat flour and sugar to produce a substitute of mother’s milk for those children who could not accept breast-feeding. Moreover, Henri Nestlé and Jean Balthasar Schnetzler, his friend and a scientist in human nutrition, removed the acid and the starch in wheat flour because they were difficult for babies to digest. The product could be prepared by simply adding water and is considered the first infant formula. People quickly recognized the value of the new product, and soon, Farine Lactée Henri Nestlé (Henri Nestlé's Milk Flour in French) was being sold in much of Europe |
