Organic baby food under fire

Filed under: Nutrition: Health, Playground Bureau

organic baby foodThanks to Nick at Slashfood for posting this story, about some brands of
organic baby food in the UK that are not what they seem to be. Because of the UK labeling laws, an ingredient has to be a certain percentage of the whole product if it is listed first. Several brands contained much less than the amount required by law, which means that not only are you not getting what you think you are getting, but also that there are a lot more fillers in the baby food. If you are concerned about feeding one of these brands to your child (Heinz and Cow and Gate were two mentioned), check out the links to articles provided by Nick in his original post for more details.
