Ummm.....gross???
-
@Rainbow Sprinkles: SERIOUSLY!!!
-
Maybe for omega 3?
-
Gross!
-
Ick! I only buy Earth's Best and the stuff I have bought doesn't have any weird ingredients!
-
It says source of dha so it appears to add omega 3's.
-
For the DHA!
-
Its the source of the DHA.
-
Doesn't it say there that it's a source of DHA, which is the good stuff for brain development? It probably advertises on the container that it has DHAs in the babyfood?
-
DHA. Look at prenatals. Most of them have fish something in them for the DHA too.
-
DHA. It is actually from their eyeballs....
(sorry i know that is wicked gross)
-
Huh, weird. I only buy earths best or plum organics so I never bothered to look at other labels.
-
@littlebittyhouse: WHY. WHY would you tell me this? Oh god fish eyeballs. uuuuuhhhhh.
-
We're a family of vegetarians and it is sooo hard to avoid fish-sourced DHA. Seems to be in EVERYTHING for babies. Ick.
-
@MamaMoose: sorry! i am glad i know! it is still great for their brains!
-
wow.. wasnt aware of this. So far LO hasnt had any commercial baby food, we just give her homemade purees
-
I just noticed this recently too - something possessed me to read the ingredients and I was totally confused, because the earth's best just says, "organic pears and water" or something. I decided to start getting earth's best for when I don't make it myself!
-
@rachiecakes: ugh I hate that. I wanted to take a DHA supplement while preggo and couldnt find one without fish sourced DHA
-
@wheres_c: just for future reference, you can get DHA capsules sourced from algae. That's what I've been taking -- found them at Whole Foods, but you can get them from Amazon, too. They're more expensive right now, though, for some reason: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009KTUGSS/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1

@allison: oh thanks. I had so much trouble finding them. I found a different brand but they used gelatin so I just said forget it!
