Tinned fruit in juice?

Would it be OK for a 7 mo? I know fresh is better but just thought it might save time for making purees / recipes if I had ready skinned and stoned fruit. Obviously I wouldn't get the tins in syrup.

I'd say Ok - it normally has ingredients on the side -they often say fruit & juice only

I also buy fridge fruit - which I think is good too

i keep 'Frutapura' tubs in cupboard for emergencies.
Ready pureed fruit + juice, no added crap(just a bit of vit C)

Yes I like the Frutapura, just thought I could vary the range of fruit if I went for tins too.

Hope so, because ds has lots of tinned fruit (in fruit juice) and has done for ages.

I'd say its OK occasionally but personally wouldn't want to use them often.

I used to use tinned fruit with DS2 and DD as I found it easier to mash, generally pears peaches and apricots.
