Start at 6 months you can offer baby table food. Steam some vegetables, bake some fruits, chop them up into small pieces and remove seeds… tada, cheap and easy food for baby.

Why pay for what you can make cheaper and better yourself? Or better yet don’t use pureed food at all, its not good for babies!
All mammals are protected by the same thing -they can’t physically eat food until they are physiologically ready to digest it. For humans this means picking up the food, placing it in their mouth, gumming it, moving it back with their tongue, and swallowing it. The most obvious of course it the tongue thrust that newborns have -this reflex actively keeps food out of their body until they can digest it. But the other steps all have safeguards as well.
For healthy, full term infants the ability to eat food develops around 6-9 months. In recent years there have been numerous studies looking at the risks of certain things (allergies, asthma, anemia, etc) in relation to when solids are started and almost all have shown that the lowest risks are when solids are started between 6-9 months.
However it should also be noted that babies with allergies may refuse solids for up to a year, and that breastmilk is nutritionally complete for at least the first year of life despite earlier statements that it is not. An unpleasant feeling in the mouth is often a first sign of allergy and may cause babies to spit out rather than swallow allergenic foods. This is a very useful safeguard that should not be overridden.

It appears that a baby’s general development keeps pace with the development of his ability to manage food in his mouth, and to digest it. A baby who is struggling to get food into his mouth is probably not quite ready to eat it.
Pureed baby food is ‘unnatural’
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/676279…
She said children should be fed only with breast or formula milk for six months, then weaned onto solids to improve control over how much they ate.
This could prevent babies becoming picky about food.

Solids best
After six months, Mrs Rapley said babies were capable of taking food into their mouths and chewing it.
Therefore, feeding them pureed food at this time could delay the development of chewing skills.
Instead, she said, they should be given milk and solid pieces of food which they could chew.
Mrs Rapley argued that babies fed pureed food had little control over how much food they ate, thus rendering them vulnerable to constipation, and running a risk that they would react by becoming fussy eaters later in life.
She blamed the food industry for convincing parents that they should give children pureed food.
She said: “Sound scientific research and government advice now agree that there is no longer any window of a baby’s development in which they need something more than milk and less than solids.”
http://www.borstvoeding.com/voedselintro…
The babies who participated in the research were allowed to begin at four months. But they were not able to feed themselves before six months. Some of the younger babies picked food up and took it to their mouths; some even chewed it, but none swallowed it. Their own development decided for them when the time was right. Part of the reason for this study was to show (based on a theory of self-feeding) that babies are not ready for solid food before six months. It seems that we have spent all these years working out that six months is the right age and babies have known it all along!
It seems reasonable to predict that if parents choose to provide babies with the opportunity to pick up and eat solid food from birth they will still not be able to do it until around six months. The principle is the same as putting a newborn baby on the floor to play: he is being provided with the opportunity to walk but will not do so until about one year – because his own development stops him. But: everything depends on the baby being in control. Food must not be put into his mouth for him. Since it is very tempting to do this, it is probably safer to recommend that babies should not be given the opportunity to eat solid food before six months.

Many parents worry about babies choking. However, there is good reason to believe that babies are at less risk of choking if they are in control of what goes into their mouth than if they are spoon fed. This is because babies are not capable of intentionally moving food to the back of their throats until after they have learnt to chew. And they do not develop the ability to chew until after they have developed the ability to reach out and grab things. Thus, a very young baby cannot easily put himself at risk because he cannot get the food into his mouth in the first place. On the other hand, the action used to suck food off a spoon tends to take the food straight to the back of the mouth, causing the baby to gag. This means that spoon feeding has its own potential to lead to choking – and makes one wonder about the safety of giving lumpy foods off a spoon.

they are unnecessary- im am with BLW- i agree with alyssa. you’re spending your money for no reason
Answer by «♦ßяíttαηÿ♦» ☆
Yes— make your own. Much cheaper, and healthier for baby.
Answer by andmic510
Making your own whenever possible is the best. I really like Earth’s Best foods. They are organic and all natural. I was (and still am) pretty picky about what my son eats. He just turned one and I still do not give him processed foods, foods with chemicals and things like high fructose corn syrup are a big no in our household. Gerber Organics have a wide variety as well and if you are strapped for time, sometimes that is the way to go. Also, sometimes it is really expensive to get some fruits and veggies if you live in a cold climate like I do!
Answer by sordid_sally
Geez, whats with all the people going on and on about “OMG YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE THEY’RE SIX MONTHS OR OLDER AND ARE THEY CHEWING CORRECTLY and blah blah blah…” She didn’t ASK what age babies needed to be, she asked about baby food brands. Everybody untwist your panties, ‘kay?
Now as for brands, yes, Gerber’s okay, there’s also Earth’s Best, Beech-Nut, and random others. You can also make your own food…try sites like nttp://www.wholesomebabyfood.com/ for easy, quick recipes to try out. (But please dont feel bad if you buy it instead of making it. Despite what some people say on here, your baby isn’t going to wither into dust a la Donovan from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade if you feed them from a jar of pre-made food.)
Answer by jellibells
I like Earth’s Best – no fillers, organic, just plain purees. Healthy Times and Happy Bellies are also good foods and organic, but harder to find.
Making your own is great when you can do it – we do it quite a bit – but sometimes jarred food is easier and more convenient, especially with the “first foods”.
Answer by jcox
I prefered Beech Nut or Earth’s Best for my children.
