| I used to feed Cooper the Gerber meat sticks when he was a little fellow and he wouldn't eat, he loved them for a while. Some of the kinds for toddlers have onions in them, so you want to look at the ingredients.

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | When we first brought Stedman home, I fed him Chicken baby food mixed with Syrup (sounds horrible I know, lol but he loved it) in a syringe for the first 2 weeks or so after he came home. He was very little and didn't eat a whole heck of a lot (still doesn't ) so I wanted to make sure that he was getting enough to eat and didn't get sick. Anyway, he did great on it and loved it LOTS

| Mine love the turkey meat sticks for toddlers and I sometimes give my 15 year old Chihuahua the meat mixed with toddler diced carrots and green beans. Works for us. |

| I don't know I had a 6 pound Terri-Poo that for the first 10 years of her life lived on Gerber's Baby Food....she wouldn't eat anything else except Roast Beef. She lived until she was 16.

| I have made cookies for mine with baby food as an ingredient. I just made sure to buy food without onions in it. |

| Baby food is safe to give...You probably just have to make sure the actual ingredient is safe, like chicken, rice, turkey, etc.
