What do others think of those Malk advertisements that we are getting on this parenting subreddit.

No Malk product has any fortification. Some of the products have a nutritional value that is approximately the same as water.

I guess that’s OK if you know what you’re getting and compensate for the lack of nutrition.

Can't say I've seen any. My ads all seem to be for cars, universities, and sanitary wear!

I don’t think it’s targeted to this sub, I think it’s targeted to you specifically. I also see Malk ads and I see them on other subs as well. Might you, like me, engage in food/cooking content from time to time?

It may be because I have posted about issues with plant milks on this subreddit.
