Baby <strong>Food</strong>s<br />

Baby foods do not differ greatly from all the food seen above nor in what is considered nutritional<br />

superior. Indeed, the most important observation that can be made is arguably that they are similar<br />

to what children and adults are eating and it may well be, due to economic constraints, that most<br />

and gerber (clarify)<br />
