**Baby Reviewer Diane, tries Baby Gourmet for the first time! Read her thoughts below!** We’ve all been there... running a little late, kids are starving (and often we are too) and we just need to get out the door. Our go-to thing to grab was a granola bar - nothing fancy, just a plain old chocolate chip granola bar. Filling, but full of sugar... not the best choice, but it served the purpose.
