Salt

All food/semi-solids (eg. puree) given to children below 1 year old should NOT contain salt/pepper/sugar/spices or any kind of seasoning/flavouring. As for when they should be given that, it depends on your own comfort level - but the general guide is to be as late as possible. Think of it this way, our kids have their entire lives (literally) to explore the different tastes and flavours of the world - so there's no need to rush into it! Our priority should be on providing nutritious food for their growing needs :)
