What is (or was) LO's favorite purée or pouch flavor? Or even a favorite yogurt flavor? Finger foods are off the table (hahaha) for a little bit and I'm looking for inspiration.
-
Plum Organics were great. You can even buy their little spoons to screw onto the pouch for direct feeding. I also loved Ella's but they are usually harder to find depending on where you live and is more costly than Plum. I used to find Plum organics at BRUs for 12 for $12 or was it $15. Either way, it was a great deal. I would stock up, especially since my oldest LOVED it until he was 4. I think he would still eat it if I can find it easily in Asia.
-
@erwoo: Was there a specific flavor he liked best? Or just anything in that brand? LO hasn't been a big fan of purées until recently so I haven't noticed a favorite yet.
-
My LO isn't super crazy about them but so far the two she seems most willing to eat are pear/spinach and apple/carrot
-
@jhd: Just brand. They have so many flavors to choose from. My oldest did have preferences though, but he pretty much ate anything I gave him as an infant and young toddler. I would suggest to try the single flavors first and then move to the veggie/fruit mixes. Earth's Best also has yogurt pouches that don't need refrigeration. I don't think I've seen it with Plum Organics but it's been a while since I've bought those so they might have come out with some.
-
@Mae: he does like pear and apple so those might be good combos. Thanks for the suggestions!
@erwoo: we have done most every fruit and veggie by itself now so I will just have to experiment with all the different combinations. There are just so many to choose from! I guess that's a good problem to have!
-
@jhd: Yeah, I used to buy one of every flavor and find one that my boys liked. Good luck!
-
My LO is crazy about the Plum Organics Peach, Apricot, Banana flavor. She sucks it down SO fast!
-
@daniellemybelle: ooh that sounds good! Thanks!
-
@jhd: That flavor is very sweet and creamy. The ones with veggies or with more unique flavors are not her favorites. She is actually a decent eater most of the time and doesn't mind different flavors in real food, but she definitely likes her pouches sweet!
-
My daughter liked the mango pouches.
-
N loves any of them with beets!
-
@tiramisu: I actually have a few mango pouches already. I should get them out for LO to try.
@MrsRcCar: I never thought about beets!
-
@jhd: there aren't a lot out there but he loves them. He also loves pumpkin ones too.
-
He likes all of them! But faves are probably things with strawberries, pear or mango.
-
A's favorite is peaches. I can pretty much mix it with anything and she'll gobble it down. Blake hates all purées, but we're having luck with finger foods so we're just going with it!
-
There's two Plum Organics ones that he really likes - Pumkin Banana, and Zucchini Banana Amaranth.
-
C loves fruit, so I try to only get pouches that also have veggies in them (since fruit only once seemed silly given how much she already eats). Only veggie, though, she won't eat at all. So fruit veggie combos work for us.
We usually do plum organics or sprout, depending what's on sale, but one of her favorites is Plum Orgabics spinach peas and pear. Apple carrots are good. There's a raspberry spinach yogurt one that she likes (shelf stable type) and she LOVES the stonyfield farms yogurt pouches, I think it was spinach mango yogurt or something. I don't usually get them because I thought there was more sugar than necessary and she already eats plain yogurt but in the go they are great.
-
LO will eat any pouch with banana in it. Gerber Organic makes banana squash, banana mango, and banana pumpkin carrot. She loves all of those!
-
They both go crazy for prunes and peaches (separate) and my older loves the gerber organics pouch with pears, peas, and spinach I think and the Plum mighty 4 pouches either strawberry or blueberry. My younger guy really likes sweet potato and chicken dinner jars.
-
My LOS first favorite was a peas with mint pouch.... I think it was Sprouts or Plum Organics. Then she became obsessed with Gerber chicken and rice purée and these days she like the morning Mash quinoa, oats, and blueberry Pouch and the Smashups blueberry, carrot, and applesauce pouch.
-
His first favorite was Apple & Strawberry from Ella's Kitchen. It was the first food that he said MMMMM after he took a bite.
-
@MrsKoala: how cute! I'd love to find a fave that he enjoys eating.
@Anagram: @skipra: @lawbee11: @Foodnerd81: @ShootingStar: @twodoghouse: @Mrs. Champagne: Thanks for the ideas, ladies!
@twodoghouse: I think we may revisit peaches. It's been a while. He really prefers the mesh feeder and will munch on anything I put in there. And bonus that he can do it himself!
