Purchasing snack cups is inevitable when you have a baby. From the time you introduce them to puffs or Cheerious, you start looking for the perfect solution in bringing food along with you. I’ve tried it all – storage bags, snack cups, you name it! I’ve tried those seemingly spill proof cups that always manage to still make a mess in the backseat of the car. Along with storage for snacks, making my own baby food would leave me searching for the perfect solution to storing and transporting baby food. With the scare of BPA and other harmful plastics, I decided that everything I would use for food storage had to be glass. Anything that is heated should never be placed in a plastic storage container because the chemicals in the plastic can leech into the food. With all these worries, it is no wonder why moms are confused about which products to use!
I tried out two items from the Innobaby line of food storage products. I had the opportunity to review a glass storage set and a plastic stackable set. Both sets are great and have a purpose in my home! I love the glass storage containers for transporting my toddler’s food when she stays at grandma’s house. These are great to use with foods that need to be microwaved, while the plastic stackables are great for snacks. Another great use for the plastic stackable containers is for baby cereal. When I was working and left my baby with a nanny, I would set up her cereal for a week and measure each day’s worth of cereal out into plastic storage containers. The stackable containers are great because they don’t take up too much space on the kitchen counter. I never used formula, but I imagine that these containers would work great for measuring out formula as well!
