Real talk, the thought of making baby food for three meals a day while safely introducing allergens is so overwhelming. I understand the importance of providing my baby with nutritious meals, and according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), early introduction of allergenic foods can reduce the risk of future food allergies. But honestly, itā€™s not just physically demanding, it's a mental burden too.

The list of requirements for feeding my little human was lengthy, and as a busy mom, one of the best lessons I've learned is outsourcing certain tasks to the pros, so I can worry less and be more present with my kids. So, you can imagine my excitement when I discovered that my favorite convenient allergen introduction system, Ready. Set. Food!, launched purees with the 3 most common food allergensā€”peanut, egg, and milk. These pouches not only save time in the kitchen, but also make allergen exposure so much easier. 

Hereā€™s my honest review of Ready. Set. Food! Organic Purees.

Ingredient quality and nutritional benefits

What makes Ready. Set. Food! (RSF) pouches unique is that they're the first puree pouch to include the top 3 allergensā€”peanut, egg, and milk. Unlike other pouches which are just fruits and veggies, RSF takes it a step further by adding these allergens to make it easier for you to keep them in your baby's diet after you've introduced them. ā€œIntroducing allergens isnā€™t just about that initial exposure; itā€™s about keeping them in the diet and maintaining exposure, which helps lower the risk of developing food allergies later on,ā€ says pediatric dietitian Dahlia Rimmon, MS, RDN. 

Here are a few other reasons why I love the RSF pouches:

  • No added sugars 
  • Organic
  • 5 or 6 grams of protein, which is impressive for its size
  • 2 grams of fiber, which can be helpful for babies dealing with constipation during the early stages of starting solids (which is totally normal!).
  • Three kid-approved flavorsā€” Banana Blueberry, Apple Banana Carrot, and Apple Peach Cinnamon
  • Made with simple ingredients: pureed fruits and veggies with peanut flour, milk protein concentrate, and dried egg whites

Safety

  • Several studies like the LEAP Study, EAT Study, and PETIT Study support early and frequent allergen introduction, showing that introducing allergens between 4 to 6 months, can reduce your child's risk of developing food allergies later on.
  • Contain a pre-portioned amount of each allergen in every pouch.
  • Clean Label Project Purity Award winner. 
  • Third-party tested, making sure they stay well below the limits for heavy metals.

Convenience

You can buy RSF pouches directly from their website in packs of 6 or 12, with free shipping on orders over $40. They're also available on Amazon in packs of 6 or 12 and on Thrive Market in packs of 6. No matter where you shop, you can have these pouches conveniently delivered right to your door (mom win!).

Cost

When comparing the cost of RSF pouches to other leading organic food puree brands, RSF pouches are priced at $2.87 per pouch for a 12-pack. Organic alternatives without allergens range from $2.75 to $3.75 per pouch.

Introducing Allergens has never been easier with Ready. Set. Food!
