Chew on this

Many millennial moms were leaving baby food early or skipping it all together. But in their rush to give their babies table food, they were forgetting one important thing: Chewing is a skill that actually has to be learned. In response, Gerber innovated with Lil' Bits recipes, the first baby food designed to teach babies to chew. Now all we had to do was convince mom that chewing was an important milestone for her baby to conquer.
