Ruth Yaron cares deeply about what your baby is eating--so much so that her bestselling Super Baby Food is encyclopedic in both scope and size. Ounce for hefty ounce, this manual/cookbook/reference guide is worth its weight in formula, packed as it is with detailed information on homemade baby food, nutritional data, feeding schedules, cooking techniques, recipes, and other invaluable feeding tips. Yaron builds her compelling argument for making baby food at home on the simple premise that food profoundly impacts health, especially when an infant's developing digestive tract is involved. Parents will learn why babies should start out on rice porridge, bananas, avocados, and sweet potatoes before advancing to more difficult-to-digest foods such as wheat cereals and milk products. While Yaron's passionate stance and vegetarian bias may turn off some parents, others will be grateful for her strict attention to potentially harmful additives and chemicals. No matter what their eating philosophy, most parents will appreciate the economy and surprising ease of making baby food at home. This is not gourmet cooking; all you have to do is learn how to boil water and operate a blender. For veggies, simply steam some vegetable chunks and blend. For baby porridge, just grind some whole grains in a blender and boil. It's that simple. And when you're feeding your baby, simple is best. --Sumi Hahn

Summary: Great book 2010-07-23
Comment: This served as a great resource for my son and I plan to use the book again for my daughter. Since I gave my prior copy away, I'll need to buy a new one.

Summary: I was really excited about this book...then I started reading it... 2010-07-22
Comment: I had heard good things about this book then i started reading it. I felt like the author made all intelligent people feel stupid. Some of her tips are "roll the sleeves up on the baby so he/she doesn't get them dirty when preparing to feed" or In one part of her book she tells you how you can "multitask" making the food so it is less time consuming. I was a little appalled that you would need to know you could multitask, for example, cut veggies while you are waiting for the water to boil. It is a huge book that could be pared down to a concise and helpful book. I found myself having to skip some of her "tips" to actually get to the part of foods for the baby, which once I did find it they weren't any better than other places I had found recipes. Overall I was very unsatisfied with this book.

[...] was where I found much better information on stages of baby food, recipes etc. It left out all the nonsense she puts in her book. I should have paid more attention to the negatives reviews in this case before buying this book.

I am making most of my son's food. I am definitely going to be looking for another book on amazon that is more about baby food than tips and tricks. I need a no-nonsense book... I would like just a schedule of when to introduce foods, and maybe some same menus. The only part of her book I did kind of like was the part where she talks about the individual foods, when to introduce (but sometimes they differed from others I'd read). I would like a book about how to create a menu that provides a nutritious balance to your baby's diet.

Bottom line: There are better books out there...or just use the internet. There are some nice things about this book, but you have to sift through a lot of extra words to get down to the heart of the matter.

Summary: Big Fan 2010-07-11
Comment: I like this book. It has a ton of info, it made me realize that my baby needs nutritional balance just like an adult. When I had my first two kids, I guess I just thought you'd feed them some food out of baby jars and hope for the best. I may not agree with all of it, but who cares? (She seems to really hate meat) It's a fabulous reference guide.

Summary: Great Customer Service 2010-05-21
Comment: When I originally received my purchase, I was not pleased. I contacted the seller by email and they immediately responded. I have been very pleased with the way they handled my problem and the overall customer service. So much so I would buy from them again.

Summary: A Must Have for Every Parent! 2010-04-20
Comment: I have been using this book for almost 4 months old and I don't know what I would do without it! I recommend it to all of my friends with little ones! It saves me a lot of money and it's really easy to make your own food. Not to mention, I know exactly what my little girl is eating and I know she's getting the proper nutrition for her age.

It's packed full of information and there's a lot of stuff you may not ever use, but it works really well as a reference. You don't have to read the entire thing. I think I skimmed over one or two chapters at the beginning and then I've been using it as a reference ever since.

I use it with my Beaba Baby Cook steamer/food processor and now making baby food is the easiest thing in the world!

You don't need a library of books on pureeing baby food, making the food is the easiest part and this book will give you 3 or 4 different ways you can cook, puree, mash, or prepare each food.

The most valuable information in this book is the timeline for foods and the do's and don't's of feeding your baby at each stage.
