Organic baby food is all the rage, but is it really worth it? I was on a mission to find out. With my first two kids, I bought baby food off of the grocery store shelves. With my third, I made it all myself.

It’s not possible for every mom to make food for her baby, and if that’s the case, but you still want the best, where do you turn? Well, one option is Yumi. They offer a meal delivery service for babies and toddlers.
