Bananas for sure. But he really isn't that picky...

We've only given LO cereal, avocado, and squash. She wasn't too thrilled about the cereal but likes the foods so far equally.

He likes them all except for the jarred meats - ew! Guess I will have to mix veggies with the meat in order to get him to eat it.

Green beans and carrots. Tolerates fruits but prefers veggies. Haven't tried meats yet.

Squash, sweet potatoes, & bananas!

They like most of them but I'd day the favorites are sweet potato, avocado, and mango

SandFHasse

He likes sweet potatoes the best

Grace likes sweet potatoes. Not a fan of avocado or green beans. And I will never get the meats bc if I will not try It I will not make her. She can try them later not as purées.

We have yet to start foods. Anyone else with me?

He's basically into anything. We've tried sweet potatoes, green beans, peas, and carrots. He also likes to reach onto my plate and try to eat my food.

Us too. DS is 6 months next weekend. We will just do a little rice cereal just to get him used to the spoon etc and then a week later I want to try carrots and sweet potatoes.

@RedSaffron - I hated poi when I went to Old Lahaina Luau. It's taro root, right?  What's the coconut custard thing they make in HI???  Loooooooved that?  Is there a better way you prepare poi?

MiaMyPuggle

Forgot to type my answer....bananas, avocado, carrots, cereal......loves them!  Hates: squash...I have to mix it with cereal to mask it.

Loves pears, carrots. Hates peas. Made an awful face and gagged.

RedSaffron

@MiaMyPuggle‌ That's poi, but the one you had is disgusting. I went to Old Lahaina once and it was incredibly sour. We buy her a better quality from Kauai called Hanalei. It's mild and never becomes sour. If you have a chance to come here again, try that one and with a little sugar.
That coconut custard/pudding is Haupia! I can eat a tray of that haha. At your local Asian market, they might have it in a powder form and all you have to do is boil it with water

MiaMyPuggle

@RedSaffron - I have an Asian market 2 miles from my house. I found a recipe online, but if I can buy powder, I just may.

RedSaffron

That's what we use here hehe. I think the brand is "Noh!" If they don't have you can probably order it online or I'll mail you some

My neighbors are Chinese and we are good friends, so if I don't find it at the Asian Mkt, I'll have her tell me where I can buy it or make her make it for me bc she's such a gooooood cook! I've only gone to the mkt to get the Thai Iced Tea packets, which taste EXACTLY like the real drinks from the Thai restaurants. (Sorry for post jacking, OP!)

RedSaffron

@MiaMyPuggle‌ Yay for awesome neighbors! I love Thai Ice Tea, can't wait for DD to wean from bf so I can drink those milky goodness

No foods here either. He turns 6 months on Tuesday, but to be honest he's not really all that into watching us eat yet. He sits with us at the table, but not really into the food.

I suppose I'll start putting spears/sticks of different foods on his tray. I think I'm more looking forward to a few months from now when he just gets whatever we make.

Piggy loves all food, but fuck those green beans.

amt0312

Can't believe all the babies who prefer veggies over fruit! DD loves all of her fruits, prunes, pears and bananas especially. She merely tolerates the vegetables and absolutely haaaaates avocado. I found that she hates homemade carrots and green beans but will eat the store bought ones. Works for me! Less purees that I need to make! 

Will be trying out mangos and peaches this week. Next week will be chicken. We've pretty much maxed out on the different vegetables for a baby her age, so we are continuing on with fruits, meats and other food varieties.

Still no food here but I did sneak him a bite of polenta last night...I'm pretty sure that makes me a bad mom...
