No “infant” formula sold in the U.S., including store brands, can contain brown rice syrup. That’s because infant formula is tightly regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Store brand and name brand infant formulas are nutritionally equivalent and brown rice syrup isn’t allowed as part of the formulation for any infant formula sold in the U.S.
“Toddler” formula (for older kids), however, can contain brown rice syrup–organic and otherwise–because it’s not regulated by the FDA like “infant” formula is.
