Hollo, we have been doing BLS with DS so he's been eating toast for a few weeks (he's just over 7 months now). I usually spread either avocado, banana or vegemite on a slice and cut it into soldiers. He loves it. He chews and sucks on it until it falls apart and in these few weeks has managed to work his way up to eating almost the whole slice.
He's been eating all fingers foods for a month now and it's amazing to watch him develop and learn to love his food and feeding himself.
