Baby Food

I will not feed my child anything that I have not yet tried myself.

That sounds reasonable. It all started when I was sitting down to feed Darth Baby when I wasn't sure of the temperature. So I popped a bite of "peas" in my mouth to make sure it wasn't too hot.

Although there was a picture of peas on the outside of the jar, what was inside had the consistancy of curdled milk and the flavor of something usually reserved for post digested foodstuff.

However, it came to me as an epiphany that I could provide the world with critical data that it so desparately needs. I will help all parents. I will rate babyfood so you won't have to!

Here is a short list of the flavors and what I think. I will add too it as the list grows. Understand that with each flavor will come a color code indicating how bad my baby's skin reacted (she has allergies to foods) based on the food. Yummy, Now lets dig in! (white no reaction, pink some reaction, red bad reaction, red alert yikes its gonna be a long day!)

"Bananas" or as I like to refer to them as "what the hell did I just put in my mouth. white

"Peas" well at least they taste like vegatables. Just a little pre digested and bland. red

"Green Beans" remarkable. Put it and the peas together and I would never be able to tell them apart. Its like comparing chewing on cotton balls with chewing on cotton underwear. red

"Apples" this is the best. Thin applesause you could drink with a straw. It is now my number one favorite drink, and it comes in convenient shot glass form. white

"Pears" same as apples

"Peaches" yuck, but mostly the same as apples.

Although that finishes the stage 1 foods, you must understand that what I will post next should be feared at all costs. What follows might offend those of weak constitutions or of a gentle palette. I won't hold back. Since we can't offer anything that has peas or beans (wiping out 60% of the choices) we had to look for more creative choices.
