I have a great new giveaway for those of you with little ones! Gerber has some newer foods out, Gerber 2nd Foods purees with DHA and antioxidants, and Gerber 8 Grains and Yogurt cereal. What’s the deal with these?
- Gerber 8 Grains and Yogurt Cereal helps introduce babies to the taste of yogurt — this looks like a useful idea when they’re not quite into yogurt yet but have been eating cereal. What’s in it? According to their site: “8 natural grains (Wheat, Barley, Rye, Corn, Sorghum, Rice, Millet, Oat), real yogurt, and Live and Active Cultures.” No artificial flavors, good source of iron.
- Gerber DHA & Antioxidant Purees — what I like about these is that they have some new varieties like “apple blackberry.” If you’re feeding baby foods, it’s hard sometimes to introduce new tastes during this period, especially to picky little ones. They also have 18mg DHA per serving (this is what they’re also adding to baby formula lately, for eye and brain development). Plus, since they’re fruits or vegetables, obviously your vitamin C or A.
We weren’t in the baby food stage very long here with Mr. 2, since he came over at 9 months and was Mr. eat-anything-table-food almost immediately. So it’s interesting to take a look every once in a while — you think they can’t come up with anything new in those little jars, but I guess they do!
Giving away

My son’s favorite food is either yogurt or strawberries. He mostly eats table food, but he still gets cereal and pureed veggies (though I usually make my own!).
Squash is my baby’s favorite!
My 6 month old loves carrots!
My daughter just turned 4 months so we are excited to try the new foods but only tried cereal so far! Would love free stuff to test out what she likes
My sons favorite food is apples & blueberries. Thanks so much!
My daughter’s favorite was sweet potatoes. This next one is yet to be determined, but we’ll know soon enough when we start him out on solids.
My son, Arie, is 8 months old and has such a sweet tooth. Loves any and all fruits. He always has to end each meal on a sweet note! Towards the end of the jar of dinner he wines til he gets a bite of fruit in his mouth!
My sweet surprise, Myah, loves the apples and ham. It’s awesome that she gets the sweet with the healthy.
Nate is 9 months old and eats EVERYTHING! I would guess is favorite is Apricots with mixed Fruit – or something ike that!

I think pears are the winner, followed by anything banana, and anything green bean!
My son will be 4 months on the 19th and im super excited about starting him on foods and having these jars around would be a big help. When my 2 yr old daughter was an infant she loved and still does love her orange foods.
