Why Organic?

Choosing organic is choosing to live a healthier life. Organic foods are produced without the use of potentially harmful chemicals and synthetic pesticides or growth hormones. This is even more important when we consider infants. For four to six months following birth, infants receive most of their nutrition from breast milk or infant formula. It is so important that these formulas contain the safest ingredients.

If ingested, potential toxic chemicals or heavy metals can lead to compromised immune system development. Likewise, young infants consume disproportionately high levels of fruits and vegetables when compared to adults. This increases their risk of exposure to potential contaminants found among non-organic products. Finally, Earth's Best products do not contain genetically engineered ingredients (GEIs), made by inserting genes from one plant into a strain of another to produce more crops or control pests.

Why organic? It is better for you, your child and the environment they will grow up in.

The Earth's Best Difference:

• Organic ingredients grown without harmful pesticides
• No Genetically Engineered Ingredients (GEIs)
• Most items made only from whole grains
• No added salt, modified starches or refined sugars

This review is from: Earth's Best Organic 2nd Corn & Butternut Squash, 4-Ounce Jars (Pack of 12) (Grocery)

My 7.5 month old is not into textures just yet and she also doesn't like things that are too thick either. This flavor is a bit runny in comparison to the other flavor she loves -- Spinach & Potato -- but she loved this on the very first try and ate the entire jar in one sitting. Whoohoo!! I've tried to add just a bit of rice cereal to this to thicken it up a bit and it still maintains that corn & butternut squash flavor.

I've read reviews that complained about the poor packaging and inconsistent qualities between jars but I've had no problems with either. My jars arrive nicely bubble-wrapped and each is in perfect condition.

great 2nd stage food for my baby.
It's also great for adding other stuff into it when you want to introduce more density food for your baby because it's quite running.
Taste good. My baby likes it. Well, my baby likes to eat everything made by earth best, so don't take my words for this particular item. :)
in all, it's good.
