    Rafferty's Garden baby food?

    I've been making up all my own food for DS's solids so far, but was looking at the baby foods in the supermarket the other day and noticed the Rafferty's Garden premium baby foods, that claim to have nothing else in them but fruit/vegetables. Anyone tried these? Are they are a good, quick alternative?

    I found them to be a good alternative for when I'd run out of DS's food/was sick/etc etc. And they seem to be popular with babies/kids too! Not a cheap way of feeding, but great to have in the nappy bag with a spoon in case of emergency . Which I did use once when I drove DH to hospital, and we had to wait alot longer than we'd anticipated!

    I use them to bulk up my own food sometimes, like as a sauce with pasta, rice or couscous & veges just to know she's getting sufficient We loooove their chocolate custard though, way nicer than any of the others!

    Oh yeah Sarah, how good is that choc custard??????? YUMMO! I could eat it myself. It's very sad that we can't have dairy here anymore, we miss that custard

    Limey, LOL it was the only packet food my DS would eat too

    So it really is just what it says on the packaging??? I can't help be skeptical, lol. Sounds like a good idea to try some then .

    Charlotte loved them - they were/are the ONLY pre made baby food she has ever actually eaten.
    I still keep the sqeezey packs of veg in the fridge - she loves to snack on them and it is a great way to get another serve of fruit or veg into her
    I loved them because they didnt have anything in them but what the label was - the Sweet potato and carrot is JUST sweet potato and carrot! Love it!
    And they are pretty good value to, easy to take a round and they can hold and use them themselves.
