Argos maakt een podcast waarin twijfel wordt gezaaid over moedermelk, althans dat is de pay off waarmee ze reclame maken ('Is dit striktheid wel terecht?')
Met striktheid wordt gedoeld op de strenge regels die er, na jarenlange strijd tegen nietsontziende lobby van de poedermelkmakers, zijn gekomen
