Did you know?
The US does not have federal regulations in place for limiting the level of chemical contaminants in baby food. In fact, companies are not even required to test their products. That’s why we took matters into our own hands.

Here to make keeping your kid healthy easy.
- Biteables are recommended for babies 9 months and up who are ready to transition from purees and have been designed for little ones showing readiness for this next step. Keep an eye out for your baby showing signs that they are able to chew and move food around in their mouth, interest in table foods, and demonstrate the ability to pick up and hold small pieces of food and be able to bring them to their mouth successfully. Your baby may also start to show interest in the food that you and other family members are eating, and may want to grab for it or try to imitate you. Many babies even start rejecting purees to tell you they're ready to graduate!We always recommend you talk to your pediatrician as you consider your baby's next eating stage. It's important to remember that every baby is unique and will progress at their own pace, so if your baby is not quite ready to move on from purees, that's okay. Just continue to offer a variety of textures and they will eventually progress to more solid foods when they're ready. Always closely monitoring at mealtime for safety.
- Wondering how to transition from purees to table food and when you can start? Signs of this stage include reaching with accuracy for objects, sitting independently without leaning or slumping, the ability to use fingers in a raking motion (fingers closing and opening repetitively) and more. We always recommend checking with your pediatrician before transitioning and closely monitoring feedings for safety.
- Yes, Biteables are a great fit for both puree-fed and baby-led weaning babies! Baby-led weaning begins with larger pieces and reduces to smaller sizes as your baby ages. Biteables are cut to size to be pinchable and easily mashed—made for your baby’s developmental needs at this stage.
- Biteables are cut to size for introducing solid foods to your baby, no larger than ½ inch in length. We cook our Biteables for optimal softness to create pinchable, mashable bites for your little one’s little fingers. Each child’s development differs and we always recommend closely monitoring your little one’s feedings. Parents can also take extra precautions by mashing or flattening ingredients with the back of a fork or spoon.
- We take safety seriously. Every batch of Biteables is tested for over 500 contaminants, including heavy metals like lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury. We follow strict EU-aligned limits: lead and arsenic are limited to 20 ppb, cadmium to 40 ppb, and mercury to 10 ppb. 1ppb (parts per billion) is the equivalent of 1 drop of water in a 10,000 gallon pool. No Biteables product is sold unless it meets our safety standards.
- Self-feeding is an important way for your baby to develop fine motor skills like pincer grasp development (picking up with fingers/utensils across a range of sizes and shapes) as well as gain general independence and self-sufficiency. Oral development includes jaw strengthening, swallowing + biting, and chewing skills that are highly associated with speech development and clarity. Our wide range of ingredients + textures also help expand your baby’s palate, helping prevent a future picky eater.
- As your child becomes increasingly comfortable with table foods, we recommend incorporating our Plates line into your baby’s mealtime. Plates offer a range of options ages 1 through 6—from familiar favorites like Mac + Cheese to more adventurous eats like Cheesy Black Bean Pupusas and Chicken Pot Stickers.
- We test for all 4 heavy metals, lead, arsenic cadmium and mercury, as well as over 500 pesticides, glyphosate and plasticizers BPA and BPS. We do this voluntarily to offer parents the transparency and trust they deserve from companies that fuel our families. Our standards are inspired by EU regulations (the US currently has no federal regulation for chemical contaminants in baby food) so you can rest assured that your little one's meals pass our safety standard.
- We go above and beyond. The U.S. doesn't have strict regulations for chemical contaminants in baby food, but the EU does—and we've established standards for Biteables that are aligned with them. That means we voluntarily hold ourselves to stricter limits on levels of heavy metals (e.g., lead and arsenic limited to 20 ppb, cadmium to 40 ppb, mercury to 10 ppb), pesticides, and plasticizers. We believe every parent deserves food they can trust for their families.
