How completely bizarre

[taimatsu]

Okay, so my father and his girlfriend gave me an enormous bag of food when they helped me move. It included the usual stuff - fruit juice, pasta, some sauces, noodles, some fruit - and some things I wouldn't have bought myself, like big matzos crackers and biolive yoghurt. It also included three little pots labelled Organix, out of their packet - plainly leftovers of something. I thought they were yoghurt, and indeed they say 'apple, banana, apricot' on the top in dot-matrix print.

I have just opened one, and it's not yoghurt. I have googled it, and it's actually baby food - fruit puree. Why, why, why on God's green earth have I been given baby puree? I am very confused. Also, it's too banana-y for me. (I like banana, but only very fresh ones in their skins, not processed banana of any sort. Baked banana with chocolate is just barely acceptable.)

What can one say? Perhaps they remembered that you liked it as a baby ;)

Think of them as fruit compote, heat them and put them on vanilla icecream

They are very yummy with plain yoghurt, I can vouch for that. (smallclanger didn't like them but I did.)

their logic is - you're a student, you should be grateful for ANYTHING faintly resembling nutrition

Maybe they also thought it was yoghurt, when they bought it? Opened one, realised, shoved the other pots in the fridge, forgot about them, later went through cupboards and fridge looking for Lucyfood, found things they thought were yoghurt...

That sounds very plausible :)

Maybe they've had a premonition that you'll be chainsawed to pieces soon and remade as a kick-ass cyborg policeman?

Alicia Silverstone used to eat it IIRC...

I make my baby food alone. I simply blend fresh bananas and fresh apples or fresh carrots and fresh apples and add sugar or honey to it. I don't cook it only when I want to have apple sauce for pancakes but then only blended apples. It won't be suitable for a baby because of the sugar or honey.

I would also eat baby food if it is taste like real fruit compot. I think they made a mistake and thought it is Yoghurt or a simple fruit compot.

Some baby food - and Organix was one good brand - is great.

I used to hope JA didn't finish all of her banana and mango, for example, and someone's chicken, rice and apricots is great on baked potatoes.
