Why are baby food bananas pink?
Friday, June 27, 2008
Fun.
I bought Ben some baby food today. I don't know when I'll start giving it to him, maybe soon. The rice cereal is going really well, so maybe I shouldn't mess with it. Or maybe that means he's ready for more, who knows. Anyway, I bought carrots, sweet potatoes, and peas. They say to start with veggies first so the kids don't learn to prefer the sweetness of fruit. Someday we'll use the bananas, apples, and pears.

i think baby food bananas are pink because they have to add ascorbic acid, or something along those lines, so that they don't turn nasty brown :)
A cultural note on baby food. I knew the rules of baby food so while in Colombia imgagine my surprise that they actually put sugar in baby food! The ones without sugar were hard to come by, and go figure, Isaac didn't like them much anyway. Needless to say he never much liked it here either.
