Lovely design packaging, clear instructions and good quantity. I really like the packaging, the colours are earthy and the image is ‘natural’. The ingredients and the information are clear. The purchaser knows what they are getting. The instructions are also very clear and easy to follow. I have not seen this food in any of the shops I buy food in. I have never heard of this product before. It was very easy to prepare and could be easily used in the home or when you are out. The instructions are very clear and the bag in which you find the food is easy to handle. Really good ingredients, the vegetables are varied and I particularly liked the quinoa, I know it is a very good source of vitamins and minerals. I also really liked the fact the food contained herbs, such as mint. It really is good to introduce lots of different tastes at this stage to avoid fussy babies and toddlers so this ticks the boxes. We both really liked the food. The colours are natural; I tend to freshly cook every other day for my little one so it was good to see that the food had the same colour as fresh food. The texture was equally good in terms of introducing more lumpy food at this stage. The taste was very good and he ate it with great gusto! I tasted it and was impressed with the flavours and the texture. I do buy packets of food for when we are out on longer trips. They are easier to transport and feed at any point. Otherwise I stick to freshly made food at home. I do also include fish and meat in his diet and the testers were both vegetables but that is fine as he has a rotation of different foods through the week. Absolutely value for money, it is a big packet. You get a lot of food for the money and the preparation is easy. I would purchase, I have looked online and I can get it. It would be easier if it was more readily available in shops though I will be telling my friends about it. As I have said, I like the variation of vegetables and the herbs that are included. I think it will be quite well received. Very pleased with the product, good quantity, clear instructions, clear ingredients, and good packaging. Enjoyed in our home. Mothergrain was a tasty new meal to try out! Polly Hadzis – Lysander 1 Year

Looked very good overall when arrived. It looks nice and good quality. However for something organic perhaps a bit too much packaging. Something more environmentally friendly would be better in my opinion. I had not heard of this brand before I was sent some to review. It was very easy and quick to prepare. Never had any concerns as ingredients all natural. She really tucked in and loved it. She liked it better than my own food! I tried it; always try everything before giving it to her. It tasted surprisingly good. I feed her a mixture of homemade and jars. The quality is good and price reasonable. I would purchase it occasionally. I would recommend as convenient and tasty. This baby food is easy, convenient and tasty! Paloma Murillo – Amaia 11 Months

Gemma Awarded The Quinola Mothergrain Butternut Squash, carrot & Quinoa & Peas & Spinach, Parsnip, Mint & Quinoa 4.7/5
Packaging looked inviting and lots of information about the food on the packet. Liked the design of the packet too. Instructions clear and easy to follow. I have never heard of this product before or seen it. Very easy to prepare and quick. I never had any concerns about my daughter trying this as all natural ingredients, good quality and organic. My daughter really liked this and ate every morsel. I tried it and tasted quite normal so had no worries about Lucinda eating this. I do buy prepared food as always easy to have when going out, for trips away, holiday and when I do not have enough time to prepare my own. For the quality, taste and natural ingredients this is good value for money. I would purchase and have already recommended as some friends have asked about this when they saw the packaging. This is a tasty, easy to prepare and high quality baby food which my daughter really enjoyed. Gemma Starling – Lucinda 12 Months

How to choose the right baby food
A child's menu may differ from another baby's diet, not only due to age, but also due to health conditions (for example, a tendency to constipation or a dairy allergy) and personal preferences. However, the first thing to consider is age. It’s also important to keep in mind that your baby’s diet should be free of added salt and sugar (14). Certain positions deserve some explanation.
Milk formulas
Designed for feeding babies. In fact, they are designed to become an alternative to mother's milk. For the full development of the crumbs, it is necessary that vitamins and trace elements are present in the composition.
Canned puree
Introduced from 4 months. There are fruit, vegetable, meat and fish options. Combinations are also possible. For the first feeding, it is recommended to choose one-component purees from vegetables or fruits.
Porridges
Porridges, as well as mashed potatoes, are recommended to be offered to a baby from 4 months. Thanks to the special processing of cereals, children's porridge is easily boiled, which significantly saves cooking time.
Nectars, juices
You can give your baby juice or nectar from the age of 4 months. As long as it doesn't contain sugar. If available, it is better to wait at least up to 1 year.
Reviews of doctors about manufacturers of baby food
一 Baby food is becoming an object of special attention on the part of the state and parents, 一 says pediatrician Ekaterina Mikhaltsova . - The main advantages of industrial products and dishes are ease of use, balanced composition and minimal cooking time. However, you must strictly follow the age recommendations and cooking rules indicated on the labels.
- Dairy products and baby food in particular are complex production products where quality control is essential at all stages. Therefore, it is better to trust large manufacturers, - explains sanitary doctor Nikolai Dubinin . - It is important to pay attention to the composition and, before offering the child, taste the food yourself. In general, doctors agree that commercially produced baby food is no worse than home-cooked. And some are even better, due to supplements in the form of vitamins and trace elements.
Popular questions and answers
We answer the most common questions about baby food together with pediatrician Ekaterina Mikhaltsova and sanitary doctor, epidemiologist Nikolai Dubinin.
How to choose food for the first feeding?
Pediatricians recommend starting the first complementary foods with vegetable puree. Fruits contain a large amount of fructose, which can irritate the lining of the stomach and other organs of the gastrointestinal tract. Of course, the parent himself can boil and grind vegetables to a puree-like consistency, but it is easier to purchase products in the store, since baby food is made in compliance with special technologies, taking into account all the rules and regulations.
Another question is how to choose a brand among such a variety of baby foods. The best solution is to stick with a well-known brand. Large companies care about their reputation, and therefore strictly follow all established quality standards and do not violate production technology.
The next step is to study the information on the label, make sure the quality, evaluate the following indicators:
• Natural composition. Preservatives, salt, sugar and other ingredients must not be present in the composition (at least in products for children under 1 year old).
• Consistency (grinding quality). A good puree should be smooth and without lumps.
• Multi or single ingredient . The first puree should contain only one ingredient. The child should get used to a certain vegetable, after which it will be possible to introduce others, adding each one in turn, so that the baby gets used to everything separately.
• Hypoallergenic product. Formula must not contain ingredients that can cause an allergic reaction.
• Package integrity . It is important to inspect the container in detail for dents, scratches or cracks (chips). Tightness must be observed. Don't forget to check the production date.
• Child age appropriate . The age for which this or that product is designed is usually indicated on the packaging in compliance with the recommendations of pediatricians.
When all these factors are taken into account, it can be said that the product is really suitable for the child and will not cause side effects (15).
Which of the Russian manufacturers should I pay attention to?
Baby food brand Agusha has been producing products for over 30 years. The assortment has everything you need for a complete diet for kids: dairy products, cereals, fruit, vegetable and meat purees, juices and compotes. The company produces safe, hypoallergenic, complete nutrition for children of all ages. High-quality substitutes for breast milk and subsequent complementary foods are also produced. It is also recommended to pay attention to the manufacturers "FrutoNyanya" and "Theme".
What composition should healthy baby food have?
When choosing puree in jars, pay attention to the composition. The ingredients should be natural, a good option (especially for younger kids) if the puree is a one-component puree - a fruit or vegetable plus water. Please note that the product does not contain salt, flour, starch, dyes and preservatives, and is not too diluted with water. The vegetable itself may contain starch, but its additional additives are very undesirable.
