Out of all the things I've read here/about this site, I joined to reply to this.
I'm a lifestyle AB, and as such, I also eat baby food, in addition to drinking toddler formula, on a pretty much daily basis. For reference, I prefer the Enfamil Vanilla Toddler Formula. Very tasty stuff, and also comes in little aseptic juice-box-like packs with telescoping straws. Kinda handy to pack for lunches at school (work)! For some reason, seems to taste better than whatever you can make with the powder at home.
As for babyfood, I usually stick with Gerber, but, here on the Westcoast, we have Safeway-branded Mom-To-Mom babyfood (Might also be at y'all's Von's/Genardi's(sp?) on the eastcoast. Not sure about Publix. . . )
If you like smoothies of any kind, you'll definitely be down with any of the fruit varieties that you'd normally enjoy UN-babified. If you think you want to get into this seriously, start with the fruits. The blended oatmeal is a nice transition, good for breakfast, and has enough fiber to move you along through the day. I should add that for most, you'll want to go no lower than Stage2/Sitter/Toddler, as, the 1st foods stuff is just. . . runny, and kinda gross, to be honest. You might as well just stick a straw in it. Great for making a mess, though, if your Mommy/Daddy will play along and get more of it on/around your face than in your mouth.
The veggies is where it starts to get weird. There are plenty of the packets that are toddler-friendy and contain both fruits AND veggies, and aren't too gross. I will say that I'm not too picky and like, or at least tolerate all but a handful of the varieties. The greek yogurt stuff has a dry finish I'm not fond of, but, this goes for ALL Greek yogurt, not just the babyfood.
The dinners are. . . interesting, to say the least. Don't be as afraid of the meats as you think you'd need to be -- they're mixed up with veggies or sweet potatoes enough that you get the taste of what it is, but it's more like an accessory to the vegetable pairing. Chicken and Garden Vegetable and Turkey and Sweet Potato are my two favorites. Peas and carrots are just what you'd expect and they're not terrible. Give it a try!
As a reward, when you eat it all gone, you should finish with the 3rd Foods Lil' Chunks line. Basically, it's applesauce with blueberries, or strawberries, or peaches and mangoes. . All very tasty stuff, with tasty little chunks of fruit, for growing toddlers, just like you and me!
At just over a buck/per, take a risk on a couple at a time the next time you go grocery shopping. If your store has one of those Catalina coupon printers, you'll start getting coupons for $2-$4 off your next order of Gerber/Store brand baby foods, which come in real handy when you start buying $30-$40 at a time for your weekly rations. .
