Perfumed Mineral Oil, of course..   You didn't think babies, did you?

A side story, I don't recall the nation, but in Africa, there is a country with something like 97% illiteracy rate.    Since very few people can read, food distributors have learned to put a picture of the contents on the can.   So beans will have a picture of beans, corn will show corn on the can label.   

In comes Gerber and places jars of baby food featuring a prominent picture of a smiling Caucasian Baby square on the front of the label.   Stores pulled the product from their shelves ;-)     Pet Dairy products did something similar..  They tried selling PET dairy products such as Milk and condensed milk in French stores.   Unfortunately, PET is French slang for FART..   Not a big seller.   Nor was the Chevy Nova in Mexico.  No-Va being two words that mean "Doesn't Go" in Spanish ;-)
