#27: You probably know this, but babies should not have honey. Honey has the potential to cause infant botulism if fed to babies under 12 months of age. In this episode we are diving into why honey is a dangerous food to feed babies, what infant botulism is, how prevalent infant botulism is and how we can avoid honey.   Maybe you are wondering if babies can have baked goods with honey? We’ll talk through how to safely substitute honey when baking and look a little more at other types of added sugars and sweeteners that sometimes sneak into babies’ diets too.       If you’re ready to raise an independent eater and prevent picky eating then let’s get started learning about baby-led weaning together!
