And, speaking of iron, they are so called iron fortified infant cereals which in the us are often the first solid food offered to babies. They are basically a marketing gimmick, as is more or less the whole baby food industry. Iron from iron fortified products is not absorbed as nearly as well as is iron from foods that are naturally rich in iron such as ground beef and red beans. Plus, if you try iron fortified infant cereals, you will find that they range in taste from tasteless to disgusting. So it is not something you would want to offer the baby.
