 |  | BABY FOOD | | Open Wide |  |   If 10,000 Biters dish up a serving of eco baby food instead of the conventional stuff, we'll keep the weight of 71 jogging strollers in pesticide-treated food outta kids' bellies. |  |  When does "here comes the airplane" sound better than usual? When that plane's carrying eco baby food. Try to go for organic and filler-free options for a healthier baby and planet. Vrrrm… | | |  - Spoon-fed health. Organic versions don't contain the fat, fillers, salt, and sugar your baby doesn't need. And since pound for pound, babies eat more than adults, toxins in conventionally grown food affect them more.
- More topsoil for the planet to swallow. Organic farming can produce 6 inches of healthy topsoil in as little as 50 years (it takes nature about 3,000 years to produce the same amount of topsoil).
- Baby-size costs if you DIY. Preparing your own baby food can save you major bucks.
