Fruits or Veggies First?
« on: June 13, 2006, 14:47:58 pm »
What do I introduce to my lo first, fruits or veggies?  If I go with fruit should I be worried that she wont take veggies as fruit is much sweeter?

I started with sweet potatoes, then the lo gets teh best of both worlds. Avocado is lovely to introduce early as the texture and taste is mild. I've heard mixed opinions about which to start first, but I would say veg first. A little of each  ;D

I went back and forth... a fruit then veggie.  I started with bananas then sweet potatoes and avacado and mango, etc.  One of her favorites to eat is broccoli, even with all the sweet fruits she eats.
