Tesco food pouches

Hi! Some of the Tesco baby food pouches I have say to use immediately once opened. Others I've tried before say fine to store in fridge for 48 hours after. Is this over cautious guidance or does anyone else use next day? It just seems a waste when she's only eating small amounts from them just now (and her lips arent touching the pouch). Obviously I don't want to give her a bad tummy so if they need to go in the bin after then fine but just wanted to see what others do!

I honestly don't know the answer to that one @meepmeep34, sorry.

I put the unused pouch in the fridge and use the next day for lunch, there is normally no meat in them so often just veg or fruit so I'm not overly worried about a health risk if eaten within 15 or so hours in a fridge?

Pop the unused into ice cube trays and defrost as needed

They're so ultra processed, you could probably eat them a week later and they'd be fine. Give her some real food!

Make your own purees, and soft foods, and store required amounts in containers that you can purchase, for those purposes. Much better for her, than those pouches.
