Beech-Nut Organics is made with real ingredients, gently cooked. Our Stage 1 Beech-Nut Organics sweet potato is a velvety-smooth favorite all on its own - with nothing artificial. There’s no need to add anything to our organic baby food—so we don’t. Only natural, USDA organic, and non-GMO fruits and vegetables. We gently cook our foods over indirect heat to protect color, flavor, and nutrients. As a Stage 1 puree, this food is ideal for babies starting solids around 4 months and up. All Beech-Nut baby food jars are vacuum-sealed for freshness. This jar can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days after opening.
