Bette Midler was the subject of intense backlash on Twitter for her dismissive tweet on the baby formula shortage.

She stuck to her tweet and opinions even after people criticized and corrected her.

There is a shortage of baby formula products after Abbott Nutrition recalled products for medical reasons.

The shortage forced stores to ration formula sales and has frustrated parents who need the products.

The issue has been on discourse recently, and then Midler tweeted that parents should try breastfeeding.

She tweeted in response to Stephanie Ruhle’s tweet about the oligarchy in the baby formula industry.

Many people responded to Midler’s tweet, telling her that it was an insensitive and bad take.

One tweet pleaded with Midler and people to stop shaming women for not being able to breastfeed.

Midler made an additional tweet to back up the first and offered the solution of wet nurses.
