anyone use Sprout babyfood?

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

I'm trying to make as much baby food as possible for DD b/c I have severe food allergies, so we are doing slow introductions.  BUT - we are traveling this weekend (Cali...whoo hoo!) & I dont want to have to worry about making food while on vacay.  It seems like Sprout is the only brand that has single veggies & not mixes?  Has anyone used it?  I'm looking at getting some of the sweet potato & some of the squash...and then i'll do the simpley fruit Plum brand.

any other recs??

    I love Sprout and Plum- that is all LO gets. It is relatively well priced too for organics. Sweet potatoes is Eli's favorite! He scarves it down. I have nothing but good things to say about both.

    Sprout is pretty good.

    Do you mean single veggies like stage 1's? Earth's Best has a pretty good variety of stage 1 vegetables, Lucas loves that brand.

    And, I'm really jealous you're going to California. Sad face.

     I just dont know if i want to travel with glass jars like Earth's Best comes in - but i'll see what Whole Foods has & then decide!

    don't be that jealous...it's supposed to rain 2 of the 3 full days we are there...but hey, at least i get to look at palm trees instead of snow!

    We used it once.  Betsy wasn't wild about it and I didn't like the packaging (she wouldn't eat the whole packet in one sitting, and it didn't seem to keep well).  We switched to Earth's Best early on and it was a really good fit.  she's moved on to finger foods now.

    I thought about the glass after I posted it. Not sure where you are going/staying, but when I travel I just go to the store and stock up for the trip. Could you just do that?

    T for true about the packaging. I forgot that part since I was just focusing on the food. It is a pain in the butt to re-seal if your LO doesn't eat it all but I would just buy the 2.5 ounce portions so DS would eat it all at one time and I didn't have to worry about that.

    Gerber has an organics line that has single ingredients and is in plastic tubs.  They have small tubs and big tubs.

    I have used Sprout, Plum, Ella's Kitchen, Happy Baby all in pouches.

    We used Sprout baby food when we were traveling.  Like you, I make my own food, but did not want to do so while on vacation.  Our daughter loved the food.  She liked their apples a lot better than the apples I make her.  Not sure what that was all about!

     Also, because of the containers, it was easy for travel.

    We also use Sprout when traveling. the apples are great - they roast them for the great taste, and it's great they have separate roasted veggies, too. We like that they are bpa free and the only ones we can "recycle" the whole thing using TerraCycle - u can send them in for free!
