Organic foods offer countless healthful benefits for you, your children and the world around us. With The Hain Celestial Group's family of organic brands and Earth's Best you can be sure you are giving your family the highest quality organic foods.

Earth's Best For Infants

From the day they are born, infants rapidly change and grow. And so do their food preferences. That's why Earth's Best offers a wide variety of formulas, cereals, jarred food blends and juices to ensure your baby gets the wholesome and pure nutrition they need.

Earth's Best Organic Whole Grain Rice Cereal

Organic... Pure... Delicious. Give your baby a healthy start on life with Earth’s Best. Earth’s Best is the only full line of organic baby food and it is the first brand of baby food to be produced with NO Genetically Engineered Ingredients. Earth’s Best infant cereals and jarred foods are available in over 40 varieties, along with infant juices and teething biscuits to satisfy the taste and texture of babies four months and up.

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
• No artificial flavors, colors or preservatives
• Kosher (excluding meat varieties)

As your little one grows, you'll have to make a lot of choices. With Earth's Best choosing the right food is easy.

2.0 out of 5 stars BEWARE--contains undeclared soy, June 29, 2008

This review is from: Earth's Best Organic Whole Grain Rice Cereal, 8-Ounce Box (Pack of 12) (Grocery)

My 6 month old son has allergic colitis with sensitivities to both dairy and soy. When we gave him Earth's Best Whole Grain Rice Cereal for infants (which does not list any milk or soy ingredients), he had a bad reaction, so I called the company to find out if the tocopherols (vitamin E) in the cereal are soy-based and they said "yes" even though the ingredients on the package say nothing about soy. We were very disappointed in Earth's Best for failing to protect babies with allergies/sensitivities. Fortunately our baby is OK now, and we've switched to HappyBellies cereal which is great and clearly labeled as dairy and soy free.

5.0 out of 5 stars DOES NOT CONTAIN SOY. OTHER REVIEW IS WRONG, November 9, 2011

This review is from: Earth's Best Organic Whole Grain Rice Cereal, 8-Ounce Box (Pack of 12) (Grocery)

I wrote to Earth's Best to ask about soy in the vitamin E. They responded that the vitamin E is derived from sunflower oil, not soy. The top review of this product had me worried about the soy. I wanted to let others know that the review is either incorrect or outdated. Please find the full response from Earth's Best below.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Earth's Best Whole Grain Rice Cereal. We strive to maintain the highest quality products and your satisfaction is very important to us.

The source of Vitamin E (tocopherols) in Earth's Best Multigrain Cereal, Rice Cereal and Oatmeal is sunflower oil.

The Hain Celestial Group's labeling declares major allergens (peanuts, soybeans, milk, eggs, fish, crustaceans, tree nuts, and wheat) and we follow the U.S. FDA's regulations. We recognize the serious nature of the allergen issue and we strive to minimize risk.

Both major and minor ingredients of all products, as well as all processing procedures and equipment, are closely scrutinized and all potential allergen issues as determined by the Hain Celestial Group are declared on our labeling.

We assure you that strict manufacturing processes and procedures are in place and that all of our manufacturing facilities follow rigid allergen control programs that include staff training, segregation of allergen ingredients, production scheduling, and thorough cleaning and sanitation.

Thank you for your continued support. If we can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact us at 1-800-434-4246, Monday through Friday from 7AM - 5PM Mountain Time.

This review is from: Earth's Best Organic Whole Grain Rice Cereal, 8-Ounce Box (Pack of 12) (Grocery)

Very few baby rice cereals are gluten free, but this is the best one by far. With celiac disease in three generations of our family, we do not want to take any chances with our little ones. Thanks, Amazon, for recognizing the need for gluten free groceries!
