We primarily let baby Hoden get him solid food from finger feedings but for things that are not easily cut up or when we are on the go we needed a better solution to awkward baby food containers. He did pretty well with the puree pouches but at 1-2 dollars a pop those things are crazy expensive. We poked around Amazon and bought the Little Green Pouches. I like that they hold a whopping 7 ounces and therefore are good for older kids too but as you can see from the picture they are huge for a under 1 year old.
I like that they expand at the bottom and can stand up on their own while filling but the opening is just barely to small to pour a jar of baby food into it (uber frustrating) and a serving spoon is also hard to use as well. We primarily plan to use them with homemade baby food so we will most likely use a makeshift pastry bag to fill them in the future (ziploc baggy with a corner cut off).
Be really careful if you have a budding Picasso on your hands like I do. He decided that my lovely concoction of spinach and carrots would make fabulous finger paints. He kept his naked body inexplicably clean but the high chair and the floor underneath were a different story.
We are glad we spent the extra money to get pouches that are 7 oz instead of only 4oz for when our kiddos get bigger (older kids enjoy applesauce and yogurt in them). But I do wish they were much easier to fill, and a bit cheaper.
* I was not provided any compensation for this review, we purchased our pouches off amazon, although diapers.com has a good deal on them as well.
