Review of Beech-Nut Homestyle Foods


My kids are a bit past the baby food stage, but that doesn't mean we're out of the loop for what's good for growing babies! We recently tested the new BeechNut Baby Homestyle Foods line, and when I say "tested"... I really mean "tested." Check out these pics of my 5 and 4-year-old sons chowing down on the new flavors!


(My 10 year old also loved them.. but didn't want me taking pictures of her enjoying "infant food.")

The yummy new flavors include:
  • Pears and Blueberries
  • Apples, Cherries & Plums
  • Cinnamon Raisin & Pears (my personal fave)
  • Peaches, Apples, and Bananas
These all-natural foods are have added vitamins and minerals and are thicker than many baby foods, making them perfect for the 8-month and older infant. The 6 oz. glass jars contain just enough food for a sitting (and maybe even a snack later!) The new foods are created based on the new Beech-Nut Advancing Nutrition platform -- a strict outline of nutritional guidelines exclusive to their foods!

When you think about how simple and perfect fresh fruit is... there's no need to change them for growing babies. An all-natural source of vitamin C and providing 5-7 grams of fiber per serving, this product has taken the pure, natural flavor and texture of fruits and put them together in an easy-to-eat and convenient package for parents. Eat up!

  1. I think my son would most love the Apples, Cherries & Plums. He's nearly 2 but still loves to snack on the fruity Beachnut foods. I also use them as mix in's for cupcakes in an attempt to make them a bit healthier for little man
