Baby's First Foods

As a dietitian, what would you say are the key benefits of making baby food?

I love knowing exactly what's in the food that my baby is eating! Being able to hand-pick ripe fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and high-quality protein is a huge benefit of making your own food. Another benefit is that you have so many more puree options and can expose your child to more foods such as avocado, papaya, and blueberries.
