    Baby yoghurt

    I don't have to buy the commercial packaged baby yoghurt do I? As long as it is full fat 'natural' that should be ok. I am planning on using the 'easi-yo' brand, unless there is a reason why I shouldn't.
    I like the convenience of it, especially as I live in the country and the shop sells limited varieties and shuts at 1230 Saturdays and not open Sundays.
    Eventually could I use flavoured varieties? Obviously not strawberry but banana?
    For my bub I am planning on adding different fruit purees to take the bite out if it.

    Thanks

    I use the Jalna or Mungella natural unflavoured yoghurts as they are pot set (so no thickeners).

    Yep, full fat natural is fine, then can add anything you like. I too buy Jalna.

    'baby yoghurts' are full of extra additives and sugar that are unnecessary for bubs.

    I can't comment specifically on easy-yo as i have no idea whats in it, but i presume no added sugar so that's a good start.

    I use to use Jalna too for DS. He loved it.
    We now have to buy either Wiggles or Dora (as since his gastro he'll only eat something that has those pictures on it but yeh theyre all good.

    Off topic but kelxx could you wash out the yoghurt containers and put the jalna yoghurt in it? Or would he know? I am sure you can buy wiggles bowls etc could you put it in that?
    I personally don't like all the 'kids' youghurts because of the additives. Some of the 'dairy desserts' have to be full of colours and preservatives. I remember years ago there was bright blue one which smelt awful. So can't be good for them. Ok for a treat on the odd occassion but not something I want my DS eating regularly.
