Tampered

We introduced the cheapo Gerber nipples to AJ a few days ago, and by golly, the boy loves them. He finishes his 4 ounce bottle in like 5 minutes without complaints.  I mean, he really sucks them dry.

So last night, on a grocery trip to Freddies, I decided to invest in a few more of those bad boys.  They're a 1.49 each which includes a 8 ounce plastic BPA free bottle, a bottle collar, and a silicone nipple.  Not the cheapest they get, but saves me an extra trip to Target.  Plus, come on. 1.50 for a bottle is pretty damn good.  So we bought 2 more.

I went home and separated one of the bottles from the packaging (which is essentially a cardboard ring, no where NEAR tamper-proof).  I noted a wet spot in the bottle itself.  SUSPICIOUS. Then I separated the nipple from the collar and a bit of a cloudy white liquid fell out from the pieces onto the counter.  VERY SUSPICIOUS.  I picked up the silicone nipple and sniffed it.  CONFIRMED.

This bottle's been used.  And not washed, might I add.  And returned. And sold to me.


Beyond unacceptable. Just gross.
