    I’ll do this every once in a while, this person hardly used any peanut butter though. Either that or the dye in his jelly is crazy, cuz when I do it it ends up looking like a slightly darker peanut butter. Unless I don’t mix it enough? Cuz I like leaving little clumps of jelly. But then yeah, you just dip little bits of bread, or crackers, or if you’re as insane as I am you just eat it like a snack.

    Know what’s REALLY insane though? Mixing cottage cheese and applesauce. That shit is delicious.

      I’ve been feeding applesauce and cottage cheese to my toddler and mixed it one day by accident. Surprisingly good.

          It’s not any of the brands flagged by the FDA. Plus, our pediatrician does regular blood tests to check for lead.

          It’s the Whole Foods brand unsweetened applesauce.

          Most applesauce is apples, water and vitamin C. Some have some sugar.

          Even the worst store brand applesauce I could find an ingredient label for was just apples, sugar, vitamin C. Not entirely sure what you were trying to imply about applesauce?

              Fair point, but it’s the Whole Foods brand unsweetened applesauce. We also don’t serve the pouches and this is a controlled food served with planned meals, not something that our kid is sucking down multiple times a day.

              :) some brands it might be, but apples are pretty sweet on their own so most don’t even bother adding much if any.
              Adding none can work as advertising, and adding a gram or so can help keep the apple solids from separating, which makes people like the texture more, so it’s a trade off.

              We’ve gotten, and continue to get, way better about not making staple childrens food absolute garbage since the whole wave of childhood obesity thing was noticed.
              It used to be terrible since the kids would ask for whichever was sweetest. Parents have actually started looking now so it’s calmed down a bit.
