Have you read this article about salmon flavored baby food? While it’s definitely a far cry from chicken and noodles, we decided to get another baby’s perspective on the story. We had Lucy, baby daughter of Emily of Not That You Asked…, give us her thoughts on this intriguing new flavor trend in baby food.
So now don’t get me wrong – I’d most certainly like to grow up to be the kind of intelligent person who contributes to society in a meaningful way – but I don’t think a lack of salmon in my diet is going to be what we blame should I never become the President of the United States.
Also, you know what skeeves me out? The general mixing of baby food purees. Some things don’t GO TOGETHER, you know? Vegetables should be mixed with vegetables and fruit should be mixed with fruit and those crazy people who mix GREEN BEANS with PEARS should be… well, they should be made to eat it themselves! And so I’m probably not the best candidate for pureed SALMON BONES. I’m just saying.
But then again, perhaps if we can make it past the fact that we’re dealing with A) elderly fish (did the article call them “soft”? eeeeew) and B) their CHOPPED UP BONES, the whole cream cheese dip option sounds like a mighty fine idea. I am certainly not a baby who turns down delicious, creamy, gummable dips. (I can also down a bowl of ketchup with just one French fry, you know.)
But in my humble opinion, I’ll take my chances on real salmon, as long as you put some sort of fantastic sauce on top. Sauce that looks like dip. Or frankly, I think ketchup will work even better.
