		<description>He he. I also will admit to it being more of a control thing than anything else. But so easy to justify from the taste and economy point of view too. Plus, then I don&#039;t have to worry about forgetting to buy more jars.

I have two reservations though. I find it hard to feed him my food when we are out because of contradictory advice about the care of food once it has been defrosted. Of course, some sort of cooler puch would probably work here.

The other one is the issue of organic food vs ordinary food. I was reading an article a while ago which said that the irony of making your own food is that because of the very strict guidelines for baby food it often has far lower levels of pesticides and such than food made at home. But it annoys me that in the supermarkets a lot of the organic food I want to cook is from far flung places, whereas the local stuff is non-organic. And of course there&#039;s the cost. I&#039;m afraid I compromise and buy some things organic - meat, things I won&#039;t be cooking or peeling and such - and other things not.</description>

		<description>Some great ideas in here! I was extremely inefficient and made my baby food every time instead of making one huge batch and storing it. I do agree though that it&#039;s the best way to go. I rarely have trouble getting my kids to try new foods and they LOVE veggies. I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s because I fed them homemade baby food instead of that disgusting jarred stuff.  Plus there&#039;s the peace of mind knowing what exactly is going into their little tummies and no worrying about baby food recalls.</description>

		<description>I used Super Baby Food for help the first time around -- just to get a general idea of what foods are good at what age.  there were also some good recipes in the back for your older (toddler age) kids.
							Sorry... forgot to say great post - can&#039;t wait to read your next one!</description>
