NPR's Howard Berkes reports that there's an answer to the great infant formula mystery. The mystery opened a year ago, when strange reports began coming in from all over the country. Men and boys were walking into discount stores, and buying cartloads of baby formula with fists full of cash. Suspicious police called in the F-B-I, the customs service, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Secret Service, the State Department and the Immigration Service. But no one figured out why baby formula was such a hot commodity. Until now.
