Tin Jar
Tin/Jar Baby foods VS Home made ?

What are the Pro’s And cons? & What do you do or prefer to do?
Now my son is getting older he is starting to eat alot more solids. Ive tried both jar baby food and even had a go at making my own, and to me, I dont know which i prefer or which i should stick with.

Im just really curious as to what other mum’s think?
To me the pro’s and cons are the same.
Im only really saving a few dollars a week, and although it does add up over the months, its still not much. Considering it takes me 1-2 hrs a weeks to make baby food and then freeze it and then takes longer at each meal to to defrost then cook it. Although atleast when i make it, i know exactly what goes into it.
What do you think?

I do a bit of both. Some things are cheaper for me to just buy in a jar then it is to make…especially some fruits when the fruit is not in season and has little to no flavor in the first place. The main reasons I like making it is because I can mix it up more and give a bigger variety. My daughter only eats 1/3 a jar of fruit and 1/3 a jar of veggies a day and they are only good for 3 days once opened so she has to eat the same thing 3 days in a row so I dont waste it. Making and freezing means I can pop out something different each day or I can use a cube of peas and one of squash and mix instead of opening 2 different jars of food. And that way she can eat what we are having too.
