Our Beech-Nut sweet carrots baby food puree contains sweet carrots blended with water and nothing artificial added for a smooth texture that's easy for baby to eat and swallow. This Non-GMO Project verified puree is an ideal first veggie for babies starting solids. As a Stage 2 baby food, it is a great choice for babies starting around 6 months old, when they are sitting upright. And here's a tip: mix in a little Beech-Nut rice or oatmeal infant cereal to add iron and make the puree slightly heartier to fill baby's tummy overnight. All Beech-Nut baby food jars are vacuum-sealed for freshness. This jar can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days after opening.
