Baby Food Tasting

5/30/22 Plum Organics: Mighty Veggie (Zucchini, Apple, Watermelon, Barley) There is more than one Mighty Veggie variety hence the listing of the flavors. When you are home for a four-day weekend, you get to try more food.  When there is a baby formula shortage, you wonder if you need to increase his solids.  Rafi has had zucchini, apple, and watermelon.  This would be his first exposure to barley. There is also a "pinch" of chia seeds which he had yester day along with a "pinch" of spearmint".  Charles: Very tart.  No sweetness.  If you want to know what an unsweet watermelon tastes like, this is it.  This may be the rare exception where Brenna likes a flavor more than me. Brenna: I definitely taste the watermelon.  Tangy.  Watermelon and other stuff.  The texture is veggie smoothie. Rafi: <wants more>... though compared to yesterday's excitement, not as much.  However, he has learned the sign language for "more". Kosher ...

1/3/22 Gerber: Pear, Zucchini, Corn Pear and a pair of veggies. This is Rafi's first exposure to zucchini, he has had pear and corn before. Brenna: Tangy.  Tastes like pear.  Smooth.  Not sure if I can taste the vegetables.  Good. Charles: I pretty much agree with this assessment.  The pear is the overwhelming taste here.  I guess it's a good way to get a child his vegetables. Rafi: <wants more> It was not until after we tasted this that we saw the "1/2 pear, 4 tsp zucchini, 2 tsp corn" that indicated this was overwhelmingly pear.  Before this blog, we had a corn/squash mix and the corn was a much more defined taste.
