To think some jars of baby food are actually rather nice?

Sometimes I want to eat them myself.

Is this common?

I was glad to have DC3 9 years after DC2 as it meant I had a legitimate excuse to get the baby chocolate pudding that Heinz make Blush

Just the way they look - and some smell - puts me off putting them near my mouth so can't comment on how they actually taste!

Katisha · 30/06/2011 18:52

APparently its a diet craze among starlets and the like in the states. Read it in A A gill's restaurant review the other week

celebmum · 30/06/2011 18:53

YANBU! some of the fruit puddings are delish! Grin

Adagoo · 30/06/2011 18:56

Heinz nice.

Cow and Gate inedible tasteless glue.

Organix exotic type ones nice. 'English' fayre made of potato and water. Ick.

I'm not on the diet, honestly. I just lick the spoon at the end.

And rusks are unbearably delicious.

Adagoo · 30/06/2011 18:57

Oh, and on the rare occasions I've ponced up to plum baby or ella's kitchen, they have been gastronomic delights.

One of MIL's friends has an eating disorder and after spending a few days with us on holiday when DS1 was a toddler got a thing about Goodies products. It was the 'it's sweet without added sugar' thing that set her off. Particularly the carrot cake bars.

AuntieMonica · 30/06/2011 19:00

the heinz tapioca/apricot pudding used to be a favourite with me Blush

*disclaimer, this was 26yrs ago

my mouth is watering now Grin

suzikettles · 30/06/2011 19:00

YANBU. Only the sweet ones though.

The savoury ones all taste exactly the same - ie of not much.

rogersmellyonthetelly · 30/06/2011 19:01

Savoury ones are repulsive and taste of mushy tomato grainy spuds and water. The puddings are ok, but rusks are delish

DaisyLovesMetronidazole · 30/06/2011 19:02

Yes, Rusks are fab!

Peach/apricot puree is lovely! (And can be the start of a range of cheat's puddings).

Hipp cocoa and vanilla pudding is lovely. Like old school chocolat blancmange.

GwendolineMaryLacey · 30/06/2011 19:14

Creamed porridge is delish. :) Yes, savoury ones are shite.

DaisyLovesMetronidazole · 30/06/2011 19:16

Agree on savoury, bar the heinz fruity chicken casserole and lamb and pumpkin stew.

I loved the apple and pear one. One of my dd's loved the Heinz pasta and mushroom one.

My dd's are 9, 7 and 3 and love the desserts. I buy them if they are on speacial offer instead of yogurts

IDrinkFromTheirSkulls · 30/06/2011 19:25

Dh has a think for the Heinz banana delight. It was on our shopping list long before we had a baby Grin

Binfullofmaggotsonthe45 · 30/06/2011 19:38

The Hipp baby rice that you make up with milk is absolutely gorgeous.

When I fed DS it was "one for you, one for mummy.." Blush

Zimm · 30/06/2011 19:40

Ella's kitchen mango baby brekkie is totally yummy.

BillComptonstrousers · 30/06/2011 19:44

Long time ago but heinz used to do a lemon meringue, spread on a digestive it was bloody lovely!
