TIL that 4 out of 5 toddler foods are ultraprocessed. Nearly half fail to meet nutrition standards (edition.cnn.com)

Just cut up fruits and vegetables. They love those. No need to get special toddler snacks. Raisins are healthier than fruit snacks. The ultra processed foods are mostly sold for their convenience, and should be used sparingly.

Exactly.

Shop the outer ring of a grocery store, not the shelves.
