The story of developing Some More Food Products, a company started in 2013 to sell natural food, starts with a vacuum in the market. Having seen many of her friends and relatives readily feed their children supplements, M. Deepa says she found it difficult to believe that very few people were giving their toddlers nutritious organic supplements but preferring instant food instead. This is where the idea to develop ‘First Spoon’ began.

Here to make keeping your kid healthy easy.

Much of the baby food on grocery store shelves is heavily processed with extreme heat so it can last for years on a shelf, and often has preservatives, additives and fortifiers. In the last two years, there has been a congressional report published on the quality of popular baby food brands, quantities of heavy metals and traceability concerns. Not cool, and not the quality nutrition our kids deserve. At Little Spoon, we use an FDA approved food safety technique, cold-pressure, not heat pasteurization, to ensure our Babyblends and Smoothies are safe and stay fresh in your fridge for 14 days or freezer for up to 3 months. We source from trusted suppliers and farmers and our Babyblends and Smoothies are USDA Certified Organic and made with non-gmo ingredients. We work with pediatricians and leading experts to develop blends that fit every eating stage for your baby, from first bites and single-ingredient blends through to advanced puree recipes. Our blends serve as a great companion to baby-led weaning and our complex blends offer thicker textures and whole pieces of food as your baby ages. For on-the-go mealtime, our Smoothies are your go-to for easy meals. Purees are under $3 per blend and are delivered across the US. Our Plates, a line of healthy toddler and kids meals, are made fresh and with a focus on balanced nutrition. Packed with veggies & superfoods, you’ll never find preservatives, additives or fillers in our meals. We offer vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and vegetarian options, plus a variety of cuisines and flavors — from finger foods to complete meals with sauces and new flavors for your kiddo to discover. Little Spoon is the best meal delivery option for picky eaters and we are constantly adding new Plates to our menu. Plates are under $5 per meal and are delivered across the US. Our Smoothies serve as healthy snacks for toddlers & kids and the best pouch option for babies as an on-the-go meal. Unlike grocery store options, our line is cold-pressed, featuring 100% organic ingredients and offers a range of flavors your kiddo will love, with ingredients you want. Smoothies are under $2.50 per pouch and are delivered across the US. We started Little Spoon so parents everywhere can easily and simply get fresh, high quality, healthy organic meals for their children. No corners cut.
We don’t currently offer a trial given the fresh nature of our products, but we offer small and extra small plan sizes that enable flexibility to try us out! You can pause, skip or cancel future orders at any time.
Plates are made for early finger food eaters through to big kid bites. We have intentionally created recipes that make it easy for parents to transition out of the puree stage into our Plates with pinchable, mashable tots, bites and finger foods that toddlers and big kids love, too. We also offer a range of Plates for more advanced eaters comfortable with using a fork, eating sauces and exploring new, adventurous flavors. Crafted for everyone (yes, even picky eaters love Plates!) with hidden veggies & preservative-free ingredients in every bite, Little Spoon offers the best meal delivery service for parents.
Our purees are made with pediatricians and nutritionists to ensure that we take into account your baby’s personal development at each stage. For very first bites, we have a range of single-ingredient and simple purees made for starting solids. As your child ages, we offer advanced blends that include more ingredients, textures and eventually, whole pieces of food. We also have a line of Smoothies, the best pouches for babies and toddlers as an on-the-go meal. Like our blends, they’re 100% organic, non-GMO and feature a wide range of ingredients. If you are exploring baby-led weaning, Babyblends and Smoothies offer a great companion to ensure your baby gets the nutrients they need along the way. Our Plates also include a range of early finger foods that baby-led weaning parents love!
Your child’s health is our #1 priority and we will always be transparent about our ingredients, nutritional information and recipes. When it comes to your baby, we know how upsetting the recent congressional report on heavy metals in grocery store baby food was for parents. At Little Spoon, we have always done things differently. All of our babyblends are 100% plant-based, vegan and made with the highest quality ingredients, 100% organic and non-GMO. We focus on a wide variety to diverse your little one’s diet, we never use rice (high in organic and inorganic arsenic), fortifiers or additives in our blends. We use cold-pressure technology as an alternative to heat pasteurization, killing harmful bacteria without the use of anything artificial. This allows our Babyblends and Smoothies to stay fresh in the fridge for up to 14 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Occasionally, we use a touch of organic lemon to naturally preserve freshness (the way you might squeeze a few drops of lemon on an apple to prevent browning). When it comes to your toddler and big kid, our Plates are made with the highest quality ingredients. Like all our products, we work with trusted farmers and suppliers to offer your child the best. We do not use any artificial sugars, preservatives, additives or dyes, instead we utilize a Freshlock Seal™. It might look a little strange, but this vacuum seal allows us to keep our meals fresh without any harmful preservatives. It’s totally safe, BPA/BPS-free and locks in food freshness so your Plates last 14 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer. We work hard to provide a range of allergy-friendly options for your kiddo. Always feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] or to send us a question in the chat feature with any questions on allergen concerns.
Typically, babies are ready to start solids between 4-6 months. We always recommend talking to your pediatrician to discuss your baby’s needs when it comes to starting solids. There are a few telltale signs that your baby may be ready: Sitting up with little to no support Strong head control Has outgrown their tongue thrust reflex Is starting to show interest in food and what those around are eating

First spoon, main spoon: complementary food menu!

Reviewer Kovtun Tatyana Anatolievna September 15, 2021

Your baby is 4-6 months old, which means it's time for a change: he is already big, and his diet is expanding with complex almost "adult" products. Vegetable puree, porridge, fruit puree, juices, meat purees - all this he has to try, taste and love in order to grow strong and healthy.

Introduction to complementary foods

Pediatricians say: you need to introduce your baby to complementary foods at the age of 4 to 6 months. It is at this age that the child is already ready to accept new food for him. And then the question arises: where to start? What to include on the menu? nine0005

At the beginning of the introduction of complementary foods, as a rule, the first choice is either one-component vegetable purees - hypoallergenic mashed broccoli, cauliflower or zucchini puree, or hypoallergenic dairy-free cereals - rice, buckwheat.

But the further, the more interesting! By 6 months, the baby's menu becomes more diverse. And all the products for expanding the child's diet can be found among the products of the First Choice "FrutoNyanya".

Yes, and there is no doubt that for the nutrition of a young baby, it is necessary to choose industrial products. After all, this is a guarantee of the correct composition, microbiological safety and product quality. nine200 ml

Second breakfast (10:30): porridge 150 g + butter 4 g + fruit puree 30 g

Lunch (14:00): vegetable puree 150 g + vegetable oil 3 ml + meat puree 5-30 g + fruit juice 60 ml

Dinner (18:00): fruit puree 30 g + cottage cheese 10 to 40 g + breast milk 150 - 170 ml

At night (23:00 - 23:30): breast milk or formula 200 ml

Thus, during the day, a six-month-old child should eat at least five times. Three main meals and two conventional snacks. Lovers of food can be fed six times, but do not get carried away.

What can a baby get at six months

Baby food "FrutoNyanya" offers babies Hypoallergenic products of the First choice - to get acquainted with each category of complementary foods: nine0005

one-component broccoli, cauliflower and courgette purees,
dairy-free cereals - rice and buckwheat,
turkey and rabbit meat purees,
fruit purees and juices from apples, pears,
and, of course, baby water.

For older kids, the assortment of FrutoNyanya baby food also includes multi-component purees, cereals and juices, as well as complementary foods for children's dairy products. nine0005

How to properly introduce your baby to adult food

03/28/2014, 07:42

2 grew up to four months? Treat him with drops of homemade apple or carrot juice. And there, semolina porridge is within easy reach. Potatoes mashed with whole milk, meat broths, sweet fruit purees - more than one generation has grown up on these dishes in our country. And today, grandmothers and great-grandmothers sincerely do not understand young mothers: “You are already six months old, and the baby does not know any food other than breasts.

” Where semolina disappeared from the diet of babies, why not all children can drink cow's milk and what today is the "gold standard" of baby food - we'll talk about this with gastroenterologist Olga Tulyakova. nine0005

Juice is losing popularity

— Olga Mikhailovna, for decades, pediatricians have recommended that babies start introducing complementary foods at the age of four months. Why now they advise introducing the baby to “adult” food no earlier than six months?

- In the course of research, it was found that up to 6 months the child's enzyme-forming function is reduced, and he is able to fully digest only mother's milk or its substitutes (mixtures). If we talk in general about the principles of feeding children up to a year, they really are not the same today as they were several decades ago. I think these changes are also related to the degree of knowledge of the human body. Science does not stand still, civilization develops. As a result, the person changes. Therefore, people eat differently from early childhood. nine0005

— Not only the timing of the introduction of complementary foods has changed, but also the order of introduction of products. If earlier, for example, everything started with juice, today you can often find recommendations to start giving juices almost by the year. Why is that?

- From obligatory drops of juice at 4 months departed, since juices more often than other products cause allergic reactions; the vitamins contained in juices are also found in other baby foods fortified with the latter. Has not lost its relevance and individual approach to each baby. The first food, depending on the characteristics of the child, can be vegetable puree (if the baby is overweight) or dairy-free porridge if he has a tendency to dyspepsia (thinned frequent stools) or if the baby often spit up after feeding and he is worried about colic in the stomach. Ideally, babies are first introduced to vegetables. These are hypoallergenic foods rich in fiber, vitamins, and nutrients. In addition, they have a neutral taste, unlike sweet fruits. If the baby first tries sweets, then he may refuse from the “tasteless” cabbage in the future. nine0005

— What is the reason for the growing number of children with food allergies?

— I believe that the same development of civilization plays an important role in this. The ecology as a whole is not getting better, in addition, food products undergo chemicalization during the production process: the same juices become discolored and alkalized with so-called buffer solutions (so that they are not brown and very sour in taste). The range of allergens is expanding. For example, in recent years, more and more children in the first year of life began to suffer intolerance to cow's milk protein. This is manifested in reactions from the gastrointestinal tract (abdominal colic, loose stools or constipation), skin rashes. As a result, nursing mothers have to follow a strict dairy-free diet and exclude any dairy products from the baby's diet when he begins to eat on his own. This causes certain difficulties. But a few decades ago, whole cow's milk began to be introduced into the diet of children quite early, and there were not so many reactions to it. But before, cows also ate differently - natural feed. Now they are kept in far from natural conditions and receive a lot of dietary supplements and drugs. And then we use all this together with milk and meat. Here are the factors that provoke allergies. nine0005

— What does the optimal complementary feeding scheme look like today?

- Complementary foods are introduced to children from 5-6 months, starting with vegetables: zucchini, cauliflower, broccoli. Each new product is introduced gradually, with 0.5 - 1 teaspoon per day. After the child has mastered the hypoallergenic vegetables, you can try some potatoes (preferably pre-soaked), pumpkin, carrots. If the baby does not have recurrent manifestations of allergic dermatitis, you can gradually introduce juices and fruit purees. By 6-7 months, we also begin to feed the baby with cereals. By 7-8 months - meat in combination with vegetables. Gradually introduce cottage cheese, berries. By the year the child should already try most of the products of his future "adult" diet. nine0005

Doctors recommend starting the first feeding of children with vegetables - zucchini, cauliflower, broccoli. Each new product is introduced gradually, with 0.5 - 1 teaspoon per day.

Don't get stuck on jars

- There is a lot of discussion about which is better: homemade food or canned baby food. How do you think?

- A few years ago, I studied the technology of producing fruit purees from one of the major manufacturers. Puree production was carried out in such a way that the content of fruit and its juice in the finished product was no more than 18 percent. The rest was accounted for by water and other components of homogenization. I would venture to suggest that most manufacturers have about the same situation. Therefore, canned puree is suitable for introducing a child to a particular vegetable, fruit or meat. It is of perfect consistency, it is sterile. These are the undeniable advantages of ready-made baby food. But you can’t get stuck on jars for a long time. After the baby has learned to eat a “jar” well, gradually accustom him to the food that you will cook yourself, adding it to canned children. Change the degree of grinding of products as the baby grows (from mashed potatoes to pieces). nine0005

— The choice of mashed potatoes and porridge in stores today is very large. Should I strive to ensure that the baby tries as many different treats as possible?

- There is no fundamental difference whether your child tries 10 types of fruits or 4-5. It is important that the baby receives the necessary products: cereals, meat products, vegetables, and fruits. And the most important thing is to teach him to the right combination of products: for example, a child should eat cereals with vegetables, cereals with fruits, meat with vegetables. At the same time, there is no need to chase after excessive diversity. You may not like a certain fruit or vegetable - do not push it by force. Replace it with another, keeping the correct combination. nine0005

— Watching a young mother preparing soup for her baby, many grandmothers insistently demand salt. When should you start adding salt to your baby's food?

This should not be done before the year. Salt draws fluid from the media - thickens the blood, thickens the bile. A small child can quickly earn an excess of this salt. Health problems may not start right away, but at an older age, excess salt eaten in infancy can take its toll. Vegetables and vegetable greens level the lack of salt. nine0005

— Previously, children were very fond of feeding semolina. Why don't pediatricians recommend it now?

- Semolina is a tasty yet refined food item. This is a large number of empty calories and a minimum of nutrients. By the way, all instant cereals are also mostly just fast carbohydrates. Therefore, in order for the child to get the maximum benefit from the same buckwheat, wheat porridge or oatmeal, it is necessary to start cooking ordinary “adult” cereals by the year. First, grind and add to quick-cooking, and then just boil it well. nine0005

Less is better

— What is worse: underfeeding or overfeeding?

Underfeeding is better than overfeeding. And if it so happened that for some reason your baby does not want to eat (he is sick or not in the mood), then do not force him to eat the first-second compote by force. Let him eat a little, but it will be the right food: not a cookie or a bun, but a piece of meat with chopped herbs, for example. Overfeeding is dangerous because the digestive system can not cope with the excess amount of food. Abdominal colic, gastritis, pancreatitis, colitis begin, the composition of the intestinal microflora is disturbed. The latter also leads to a decrease in immunity in the child. nine0005

— When can you start giving sweets?

Special baby biscuits, if well tolerated, can be given from the age indicated on the pack, but in small quantities. As a sweetener in such cookies, fructose is preferred over sugar. As for sweets, then not earlier than two years, but better - closer to three. The late introduction of treats will help form the right eating habits. That is, becoming an adult, such a baby will not have a sweet tooth, most likely. And do not think that you are depriving the baby if you do not feed chocolate in a year and a half. He does not know what it is, and, accordingly, does not suffer. Chocolate will be needed later, when the child becomes active, grows, learns, plays sports. nine0005

Are you breastfeeding? Forget condensed milk!

— How should a breastfeeding mother eat? The older generation advises to lean on tea with condensed milk and walnuts, curd-sour cream...

- Tea with condensed milk to enhance lactation has not been recommended for a long time. Excess sugar can provoke allergic reactions in a child, as well as cause fermentation in the tummy. Dairy products - with caution. Oversaturation with cow protein can also provoke a reaction in a child and possibly develop into an allergy. Cheese, like cottage cheese, would recommend eating in small quantities. It contains a seratonin-like substance that contributes to the intensification of allergy manifestations of any cause. It is worth remembering that animal protein in our body is absorbed better if we eat it with vegetables. In general, starving yourself is not worth it. You need to focus on how the mother herself tolerates this or that product, and gradually eat everything, removing only obligate (probable) allergens, such as citrus fruits, sweets in large quantities, red fruits and berries, flavored foods. Food should be varied and healthy. The same cabbage that everyone is so afraid of, if used correctly, will not cause harm. Raw, of course, is not worth eating, but a little stewed or boiled is quite possible. nine0005
