Whats Wrong With Baby Food

[Snowcrystal]

I was just wondering about diet just after the bypass operation and wondered why not eat baby foods as there are smooth ones and then the next stage ones with the bits in.

Would they be nutritional enough?..and or safe enough?

Ahhh that's why...lol

I remember the ones my kids had and they were ok...needed a little salt...but it's been a while as my little ones are now big ones.

They taste disgusting!! no salt or flavour that anyone could recognise so I would'nt fancy having to eat them lol

ive got 2 or 3 pured fruit ones in for wen ive been done i though they would be good

i used some of the organic ones and they were pretty nice and some are quite good in protien

I used them during puree, I added salt and a sprinkle of cheese. I used Mum's Own Recipe by Heinz which I thought was pretty good. I also did a few of the fruit type ones which were okay but not wonderful.

Overall, I felt they had good nutritional value and made for an easy meal when I was a new pre-op and didn't have the hang of cooking for half a person, lol!

My reason for not eating it is because its minging I wouldnt even feed it to my daughter when she was a baby lol

 

[ladybird_gal]

When I was in hospital the powers that be said not to use them because they were for babies and we weren't babies. x x

This question was asked to one of the dietitians at a meet up session and the reason they gave was that baby food is extremely watered down and does not provide enough nutritional content for adults. HTH

I didn't rate them when my daughter was being weaned so I'm not going to inflict that on myself the thought of them makes me shudder. x

Thank you everyone for posting a reply to this thread....I should look at the recipe threads to see what you all actually eat but I wondered if it might be a good option as these meals were designed to help a baby grow.

I looked at them today in Sainsbury's to see the protein and carb value...I thought the protein value was too low as I'm under the impression that you guys have to have a vary high protein content...Please correct me if I'm wrong...In fact do you guys actually look at the ratio aspect of protein, carbs?..Or do you just eat meat and two veg in much smaller portions?

Thanks again
