Mums’ verdict
“Both these jars are quick and easy to use and effortless to
serve but they did not go down well with the tasters. The consistency
was good but they both smelt quite strongly – and not of anything we really
could recognise! The pud ingredients included sugar and starch which put
us off a bit and spinach and pepper would be quite a challenging combination
for an adult so perhaps it’s not surprising the babies weren’t impressed!
Wouldn’t buy these again, just seemed a bit contrived and synthetic.”

Babies’ verdict
“Easy texture, not lumpy, but the flavours were all quite strong
and we weren’t at all sure about them. The pud we tried warm and cold
and although it sounded nice it was a big no, no, no and we spat it out.
Mum tried it herself and had to admit the banana flavour was a bit too
strong and the chocolate flavour quite bitter.”
