Nowadays there are a huge number of baby cereals in stores, including instant cereals, suitable for the first complementary feeding. The prices are very different, there are more expensive cereals, there are cheaper ones. Consider several cereals from well-known manufacturers of the middle price category. Let's see if price and quality are always related.
We will consider cereals of the middle price category, about 120 rubles. per pack. Note that almost all manufacturers of children's cereals produce milk and dairy-free cereals and with various additives (fruits, etc.), we will not dwell on this in detail. Based on personal observations, we will describe the main pros and cons of baby cereals.
The best, in our opinion, are porridge Bebi (Baby) and Heinz (Heinz).
Porridge Bebi (Baby). Excellent porridge! It dissolves well and swells. Convenient to cook: no lumps at all! Does not contain artificial flavors (surprisingly, they are found in certain brands of baby cereals, see below). There is a "Premium" option, which differs, as the manufacturer assures, in composition. But in the process of use and consumption, we did not find any differences.
Porridge Heinz (Heinz) Also very good porridge. It does not swell as much as Bebi, but it swells nonetheless. Dissolves well, sometimes lumps appear. It is best to use a fork to stir the porridge during cooking.
Baby. The main advantage of this brand is that milk cereals are produced on the basis of partially adapted milk mixture. It dissolves not so hotly, you either have to choose lumps, or grind the finished porridge through a sieve. Another drawback is that it swells poorly, and therefore ends quickly! But delicious!
Agusha. The main advantage is inexpensive. The second - as if from cereals (buckwheat smells like buckwheat!). But it dissolves poorly, solid lumps.
Porridge Nestle (Nestlé). The main advantage is that it dissolves well, but sometimes also with lumps. The rest is not very porridge. And we saw a lot of shortcomings. The first is dear. The second - some kind of completely unnatural. The third is highly flavored!
These are, of course, not all brands and manufacturers, but the most popular in the mid-price category.
