LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE

You hear about the benefits of “shopping the perimeter” at the grocery store. The implication there that “fresh” and “wholesome” foods are found in the surrounding aisles like fresh produce, meat and dairy. And while there are definitely foods there that babies can eat, let’s NOT discount the canned food aisle.

There are LOTS of canned foods that work GREAT for baby-led weaning and this episode we’re breaking down which type of canned foods your baby CAN eat, how to prep them SAFELY and what should be avoided when it comes to considering canned foods for baby.
