    As you probably guessed, they got rid of the baby. The note on the fridge reads "left the crib for a bit, call me if you need me 616-522-2720"

    I called, it's a recorded message saying something like 'I had to leave because I'm not allowed in my home state...maybe I'll be back next year...leave a voicemail and maybe Founders will use it for something in future.'

    So the Norman Rockwell-esque baby is pulled, yet while tidy whitey skid mark guy still graces the bottle of Brown Note? It's a crazy, crazy, CRAZY world we live in.

    A great way to poke fun at the situation, but I too will miss the baby

    It amazes me that people made it that far in life when something so small upsets them greatly.

    That's a pretty cool idea, but the old label was one of my favorites.

    Glad I saved one of my empties from last year. I'm glad they finally are able to put a stop to the toddlers that were getting hammered thinking this was chocolate milk though, I know that was an extremely pressing issue causing a lot of distress :rolling_eyes:

    Putting a poorly-drawn picture of a guy shitting himself on a food product label may be in poor taste, but a Rockwellesque image of a smiling child eating a bowl of oatmeal? That's just downright offensive.

    The message says he is not allowed in his home state of Michigan this year, so he is haning in the rest of Founders distribution footprint.

    What changed in Michigan?

    New Hampshire stole our baby. I say we put out an Amber Alert.

    Founder's should have changed the label to a picture of a baby doing a funnel
