BABY FOOD

Never give honey to infants under 1 year old, as honey may contain Clostridium botulinum spores to which infants have very little resistance. Once ingested, these spores may germinate and release deadly toxins.  Once infants are a year or so old, they have developed some resistance to botulinum spores.

The protein in almonds is more like the proteins in human breast milk of all the seeds and nuts, which is why it is the choice of the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine as the base for its baby formula.

Daniel Gerber, a Michigan food processor, was inspired to found Gerber Baby Foods company in 1927 when his doctor told him to feed his sick daughter Sally strained peas.  At the time baby foods were expensive and only available in pharmacies in limited parts of the U.S.

Real Baby Food.          When U.S. companies begin marketing their products in Africa, it is common practice to have a picture on the label of what is inside, since most people there can not read English. Gerber Baby Food was not aware of this, and ran into a problem, since the photo on their label is of a cute Caucasian baby.
