Responses to the 2022 Infant Formula Shortage in the US by Race and Ethnicity
Objective
Describe experiences of, and responses to, 2022 infant formula shortages among households with infants aged up to 18 months by race/ethnicity using Household Pulse Survey data.
Methods
Outcomes included whether households were affected by shortages and, if so, 3 nonmutually exclusive response categories (increased breastmilk, obtained formula atypically, and disruptive coping [disruptions to breastmilk and/or formula]) and 1 mutually exclusive response category (solely disruptive coping). Unadjusted shares reporting each were compared using t tests. Regressions adjusting for household characteristics and fixed effects were used to examine associations between race/ethnicity and the outcomes.
Results
Shares affected by shortages declined over time as the formula supply improved. We found no association between race and ethnicity and reports of being affected by a shortage. Among affected households, non-Hispanic Black households were more likely to report disruptive coping than non-Hispanic White households (P = 0.03).
Conclusions and Implications
Shortages may have widened racial/ethnic differences in infant feeding practices. Efforts to inform about infant feeding behaviors, improve access to formula, and/or increase participation in assistance programs could be targeted to those most likely to be affected by unexpected shortages or most likely to resort to disruptive coping behaviors. Further research could examine geographic variation in shortages and their long-term effects on infant feeding behaviors and infant and maternal health.

The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior (JNEB), the official journal of the Society for Nutrition Education and Behavior, is a refereed, scientific periodical that serves as a global resource for all professionals with an interest in nutrition education; nutrition and physical activity behavior theories and intervention outcomes; complementary and alternative medicine related to nutrition behaviors; food environment; food, nutrition, and physical activity communication strategies including technology; nutrition-related economics; food safety education; and scholarship of learning related to these areas.
The purpose of JNEB is to document and disseminate original research and emerging issues and practices relevant to these areas worldwide. The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior welcomes evidence-based manuscripts that provide new insights and useful findings related to nutrition education research, practice and policy. The content areas of JNEB reflect the diverse interests in nutrition and physical activity related to public health, nutritional sciences, education, behavioral economics, family and consumer sciences, and eHealth, including the interests of community-based nutrition-practitioners. As the Society''s official journal, JNEB also includes policy statements, issue perspectives, position papers, and member communications.
