Not a lot of flavors to brag about later but your child would surely get his or her ration of iron. The text explains the value of meat over other forms of baby foods and claims meat is 5 times richer in protein than the usual babies' meat "soups". It even claims to be better than mother's milk, ounce for ounce. It claims to be specially formulated so that babies can start eating in as early as three weeks. |
