Well, I know that a lot of people are big believers so I put out a challenge. In so doing, I took a risk because I had not checked out all the dairy products in the supermarket. It was only after I heard about Nesquik that I decided I had better go to the store and check things out. I made the challenge on faith (backed up by my general knowledge on the subject) and I was right.
The dairy industry isn't making any claims on their products about building strong bones. And I believe they certainly would if they could.

I can't very well call the FTC and complain about Nesquik because they would want information that I don't have. I have never seen the actual product. I can't complain based on second hand information.

P.S. I just remembered your post on a thread I started over a year ago. I remember because it made me laugh. I can't remember the whole comment anymore but it started with, "Holy cow!" I believe the thread was about what people would have to do to qualify to become members of The Villages Health Care Clinic. They would have to prove they are not overweight. Ha! Very nice memories.
