How does baby respond to jar foods?

HEy , why do u want to use jar food for babies? why dont u try n make something at home, i m shure they will like it. want some tips ,,,, ask me.

My son never liked jarred baby food either, it was homecooking or nothing! Luckily, my mom sent me a baby food grinder when he was born, so I just used that to grind up spinach and carrots and stuff and he ate it right up. He has never eaten meat though. We are not vegetarians, but it seems that he is! He just spits it back out, even now that he is 15 months old! He will eat scrambled eggs though, so he does get protein.

My daughter is 9mos old and not picky at all. So far she has eaten any baby food that we buy for her. I am grateful because I don't want her to be picky about eating like her dad! Did you start her on fruits first? That could be why she doesn't like the other stuff, because fruits and sweet and taste better than that other crap. LOL She also likes mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, yogurt, pudding and ice cream.

My daughter will eat anything from a jar. Of course, that is all she gets. I myself hate vegetables unless they're raw, and even then the selection is limited. She eats all vegetables, and is now on the meat/veggie combos and likes those. However, she hates the fruit. I have to trick her into eating it by giving her a spoonful of veggies, then a spoonful of fruit. Unless its blueberries - then she'll eat a whole jar.

hey why do u want to give jar food? try making something at home, i m shure they'll like it. want recepies , as me.

My son jsut turned 7 months and he's a little fussy. I recently bought like forty jars of baby food at halp price but unfortunately he too will only eat the fruit. I try to sneak some other kinds in between spoonfuls of fruit but that just ticks him off...a lot. So my big savings is going to probably turn out to zero.

The only thing our daughter liked when she was that little was squash. She wouldn't really eat much else. We always ended up taking what we were eating and putting in our mini food chopper. It saved a lot of money and she was eating. That was what I was concerned with. Our doctor is the one that recommended that. Now, we never gave her tacos or chili or anything spicy, but otherwise, she ate what we ate.

I often thought to myself after tasting the jar foods "why WOULD a baby like this?" LOL I always made fresh veggies for my babies (twins and a singleton) when they were the appropriate age. Meat I held off on for a while as it just didn't seem appealing to me either as something ground up like mush. When they got old enough to put a little chew in it then I tried it, cut up very small. Fruits tasted okay to me from the jar so I did use them most times for the babies. I will admit that I preferred to make homemade versions if possible but that's not always easy to do.

my youngest one loves it!we have different brands and i must say, there is one brand where even i like the taste from! but she opens her mouth for every food so no problems here! by the wat babies have to taste something new more than 10 times to realy like the food! it's funny to see the first bite, the face, and after a couple of bites she wants more and more!my oldest one(2,5) likes the jarfood also and more then real vegetables!

Yes well I think that a lot of food that we give our small children should not come from jars we should give them fresh vegetables and meat which are a lot better for them as we have to remember that their little bodies are growing and they require the best for them. I gave all my children fresh food for this reason.

My baby would eat all the fruity things and some of the main meal jars nut it had to from one brand easy thing to do was read wht the main ingrediants were the veg and meat that was ment to be in them and cook them from fresh then mash them. in France when I was there with muy baby the different things you get for them is amazing but the meals came in plastic plate you could microwave and the pureed food was in separate sections so your child cold taste the different foods instead of a jar with every thing blitzed and tasting of nothing much. I also find some of the jar of food smell very streile hope I spelt that right and I did not want to give it to him.

My oldest who is 15 and my baby who is 14 months, loved anything you gave them...jar or big people food mashed up. If we were on the go, jar food was the way to go and my youngest loved the newer beechnut with the green lids--especially the cereal and fruit LOL My oldest was eating baby food by 3 months and my baby was close to the same. However my middle child HATED solid food period for the longest time and then when she finally ate baby food she didn't want to stop LOL I think its just a matter of taste. My oldest and baby both were eating big people food mashed by 9-10 months and eat spicey food too. Even red beans and rice.

I dont have babies anymore they are 5 now...but i bever gave them jared crap...i always mada my own with the blender or mashed it with a fork. They ate evreything. I think its much healthier for them and they enjoyed it so much more. but i will admit that i would give them the jared blueberries and strawberries from time to time.

When my son was just getting to the point where he would start eating baby food from a jar, my husband and I talked about this. I would have loved to have had time to create foods and then freeze them. I know it would have been so much better for him. But I just did not have the time! But, I agree completely with what you said about the foods being terrible! Fruits, or course he would eat, but vegetables were so hard to get him to eat, and I tasted a few, they were terrible! Did not taste anything like what the real vegetable tasted like. We did our best to 'urge' him to eat them since I know they contain vitamins and other good stuff that he needs, but I was so happy when we got to the point where he could eat what we were eating, just really squished!

Mine didn't like the jar stuff much either. So, I just made my own baby food. It's not as hard as people think it is and definitely MUCH cheaper.

My kids only liked the fruit too. so I just mashed up what ever we were eating and let them have that, I used less spices so it would settle better with little tummies, I would mix chopped up veggie with their Mashed potatoes which was always a favorite with my son, he also loved yogurt. but I daughter didn't like anything that looked messy, so she always liked small noodles with nothing on them, and sliced vienna sausages, and grated cheese. My daughter will be 3 in June, and she eats with a wet rag next to her plate, just incase her hands get dirty. She's definetly a girly girl (too cute)!

the only thing my little boy would eat out of jar was apple puree, so i basically just gave him what me and my partner had just mashed up and he loved it! hes just turned a year old and will eat any thing including spicy food.
