Baby formulas without palm oil

Palm oil is permitted in infant formula under both FDA and EU rules and supplies palmitic acid, which breast milk carries in quantity. Formulas avoid it two ways: by keeping milk fat, as Kendamil and ByHeart do, or by building a seed-oil blend without it, as the whole Similac line does.

What this list includes, and what it leaves out

Included
Formulas we have checked and confirmed contain no palm oil in any form.
Left out
Palm-free is not the same as a better fat blend. Some formulas here replace palm with more seed oil and carry no palmitic acid at all, which is a trade rather than an upgrade. Formulas whose fat blend we have not verified are also out.
Price per ounce across the 39 formulas on this list, cheapest first.

Typical US retail price, normalised to USD per ounce of powder. Imported European formulas carry shipping and importer margin; US retail brands are typically cheapest per ounce. Subscribe-and-save and private-label pricing can shift the ranking. 2 ready-to-feed products are left out: liquid is priced per fluid ounce, which is not comparable to a price per ounce of powder.
