Do you ever come across products that make you say to yourself, “Boy I wish that was around when my kids were babies?” YoBaby Meals* by Stonyfield Farm is one of those products.
My kids are young enough that YoBaby yogurts were around when they were teeny. But YoBaby Meals are different. They offer a 3-in-1 combination of protein-packed yogurt plus fruit plus vegetable purée in one cup. There’s no more getting out two or three jars of stuff and mixing a bit up of each at meal time. Plus, these are easy to stash in an insulated cooler bag when you’re out and about or traveling. Perfect for the grandparents to serve when they’re babysitting, too.
The big kid taste test
YoBaby Meals come in three flavors: Pear & Green Bean, Peach & Squash, Apple & Sweet Potato. Since they come in 6-ounce cups, they’re just right for older and bigger babies and toddlers who need more food than what comes in a 4-ounce YoBaby container.
Dare I say that they’re not bad for older kids, too? I had my nine-year-old son, Nathan, try out the Pear & Green Bean flavor. I was convinced that he’d find that combination kind of weird. Instead, he ate the whole thing and told me, “That was really great, mom.” He liked the other two flavors as well. These would make a nice snack or lunch bag meal for bigger kids, too. However, since they’re higher in fat content than I’d like (5 grams per serving), I’ll stick with the YoKids yogurt or Squeezers (1 gram per serving) for Nathan and his sister. (Babies need foods higher in fat content since their brains are growing so rabidly, while older children don’t.)

Full disclosure: Stonyfield sent out sample coupon for us to try YoBaby Meals along with a coupon book for all their other products.
However, I’ve been a Stonyfield fan since my kids were babies eating YoBaby yogurts. And while I never met a Greek yogurt I didn’t like, I try to eat their Oikos Greek yogurt several times a week, and pay for it out of my own pocket thank you very much.
