Tiny Merengues for Tots
These are gelatin based dime-sized disks that are a baby's first introduction to popping sugary sweet snacks into their mouth.<br />According to the package, your baby can safely have these when they crawl with tummy off the floor, pulls up to a standing position, uses jaw to mash foods, and uses fingers to self feed. Because they quickly dissolve, they are probably one of the safest small foods.<br />They are relatively wholesome, with milk products as the main ingredient, and a healthy dose of potassium. Taste tested by me...yucky, taste tested by a 18 month old...yummy.<br />The problem I have (and it's a small one, this product is ok in my book) is that they seem to encourage parents to get kids started as early as possible to have sweet snacking habits. I have a friend who thought it was fine to make her baby's first food like this a fast food french fry. This is a MUCH better option.
