I hadn't thought to buy some to keep on hand for emergencies. I will get some at Target next time. She usually eats what we do for the most part. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1419741 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 09:14:40 +0000 LuLu Mom 1419741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agreed with PP, we keep them on hand for random occasions, nothing wrong with feeding them before 2...haha I've been feeding the toddler stuff to LO since she was 10-11 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1419639 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 07:33:31 +0000 travellingbee 1419639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@googly-eyes: yes that is why I have bought them. Normally he eats what we eat, but occasionally it's too spicy or something when we're out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1419435 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 23:22:02 +0000 googly-eyes 1419435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: That sounds about right...</p> <p>@JennyD: I used to think that too! But then all the other brands just say "toddler" and people who want to believe that their toddler still needs toddler food would keep buying until they don't want to anymore right? I don't know... We only have them as backups for when we are out and maybe somewhere lo can't eat (like spicy foods) or for days we just are too busy/overwhelmed by something at home.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1419429 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 23:18:35 +0000 JennyD 1419429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I say it's a marketing thing. To convince people they still need to feed their toddlers "special" food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1418531 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 16:10:26 +0000 Bao 1418531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: yep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1418487 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:58:51 +0000 yoursilverlining 1418487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had the same experience with food age ratings. I think it's probably a liability issue; so Gerber has their butt covered when some idiot feeds their 5 month old a plate of "graduates" ravioli and things don't end well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/packaged-toddler-foods-for-2-only#post-1418472 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:54:23 +0000 travellingbee 1418472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO pretty much eats everything at this point. He is 11 months old. Well, I don't give him super hard/crunchy food to eat, but other than that he eats everything. So I am wondering why some of the Gerber graduates food and others like buddy fruits say that they are for ages 2 and up. Any ideas about it? </p>
