Every baby’s journey is different, and you should consult your pediatrician on potential allergens before introducing new foods. With that said, experts now recommend offering common food allergens (in the US, these are peanuts, tree nuts, milk, egg, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish and now sesame too!) in developmentally appropriate forms once solid foods are introduced. Research shows that for peanut, eating baby-safe forms of peanut may help reduce the risk of developing a peanut allergy later. Gerber’s Baby Pops Peanut, a puffed corn and oat snack that offers peanut in a developmentally appropriate form for babies 8 months and older, is a fun snack to include peanut in the diet.
