Gerber Graduates Review Summary

Receiving mixed reviews, Gerber Graduates provide quick and simple meals that are “perfectly portioned for little eaters.” Busy moms sing the praises of Gerber Graduates stating they are “great on busy nights.” With a variety of flavors available, Gerber Graduates offer a main dish as well as a vegetable that are perfect for toddlers learning how to feed themselves. The downfall of Gerber Graduates is first their price. Then, the largest problem reviewers have with Gerber Graduates is that they are filled artificial additives and added sugars and salts. Gerber Graduates “travel well” and are alright of “on the go feeding.” You have to feed that baby somewhere. Check out highchair reviews to find the best highchair.

While I feel that these are a bit pricey to use every day, they're great for those times when you need to feed a hungry toddler and nothing's ready!  They also travel well for times when you're visiting grandma and grandpa or friends or just don't know what kind of toddler-friendly food choices will... review »

Not the best

I recently bought my twins the Gerber Graduates and neither of them will eat it. And I can't blame them, they didn't taste the best to me. They have eaten the Gerber baby food and loved it as well as the Gerber snacks. They are fairly well rounded meals and quick to fix. The price is not cheap by any... review »

gerber gradutes little meals are great.  i have a two year old son and he loves these meals.  they are nutritous.  they are very convenient.  they dont require any refridgeration witch is great so you can them on the go.  they only take 30 seconds in the mirowave.  so they are very quick and easy to make.  they are perfect to give for lunch or anytime the kids are hungry.  i dont think i have found a little meal that he wont eat.  they have a full serving of vegetables, and my son loves vegetables.  they are a great source of protein.  i stock up on these meals. all of the food groups...

Once my daughter turned a year old, I looked for ways to make quick easy meals for on the go, or for at home when nothing else was ready to be eaten. These are quick to pop in, takes only 30 seconds to microwave these ant the come in a variety of kinds. I also like how gerber has labeled some for toddlers and some for preschoolers. I feel as though these meals are healthy for the kids and convientant, and which mom doesnt love some convience!!! Although my daughter is a slightly picky eater, she loves the veggies that come with it, and she loves the pasta wheel pickups. She does love chicken but...

I started my son on these when he was around 1 and they were great all the servings are great the variety is even better. My family members had never heard of the products before but I decided to try them and I am so glad I did. When my son was around that age we were still in South Carolina because my husband was in the Marine Corp so we traveled home a lot. These things came in handy because he was eating "big people" food but was getting what he needed instead of having everone trying to feed him all sorts of junk it was nice and so easy to pop in the microwave and just heat up we could even...

Gerber is known world-wide. So when I first heard about these Gerber Graduates, I was more than happy to give them a try. My son loved them. They are perfectly portioned for little eaters, and great for a toddler to learn self feeding. They even have the Graduate Lunch-box which contains a Gerber meal, drink, and snack. You cannot go wrong with these. And for mom, if you send in 10 UPC Gerber graduate seals,  you get around  $5.00 in Gerber graduate coupons.  It doesn't sound like much, until you go to a store that doubles the coupon and the item is on sale. I have actually got items for 30... review »

My son will not eat these meals.  He likes other Gerber Graduate foods, but he spits this food right out.  I can't say that I blame him... they do have a funky smell.  (Funkier than other baby foods).

Obviously, this is a matter of personal taste.  However, I do think it is unusual that my son will not eat any of the varieties of these foods.  Especially since he will eat the same type of food if home-made or another brand.

I recommend that you only purchase one at a time until you find out whether your child will eat them.  And don't assume that your child will like these because they like... review »

I love the idea of convenient food that is pretty healthy too. My youngest son would not eat any of the ones with pasta in them which was most of the varieties. He loved the chicken or turkey with the mashed potatoes though.  I thought he just didn't like pasta but he will eat home cooked pasta, so it's not just that he is finicky. I do think that they are much healthier than other alternatives.  So I give Gerber two thumbs up for giving us better choices for our kids, but I would buy one of each variety to make sure your kids will eat them.

We were very weary for "solids" and after the 2nd foods, theres not really much out there unless you cook it yourself, then you have to be careful as to what your making, and weather your baby has had everything in the meal. With Graduates it really helped us transion to the world of solids, without risking a food reaction because of an unknown ingrediant. Now our son is a BIG eater, and loves these still. But most of all we loved how less stressful the transion was.

Gerber Graduates make an easy, simple meal for people on the go.  We travel a lot to see our families and during our trips, I can take these with us and easily make my child a meal at any time.  They do tend to be a bit pricier than a meal I can make at home but are so convenient that I can't pass them up.  Also, the trays can be a bit messy but who's child isn't messy?

My son just loves these.  I love the fact that it includes veggies!!! That's all I ask - healthy eating.  He wins, I win, we all are happy.  They are great for on the go feeding.  Keep one in your diaper bag for the next quick trip.  Leave one at grandma's house, just in case she still has the turkey in the oven, when the little one is ready eat.

While I generally like the Gerber brand, I'm really disappointed with their Stage 3 and toddler foods. The foods generally are loaded with additives, preservatives, sugar, and salt and most contain meat (I'm raising a vegetarian child). I really see no difference between the Gerber Graduate meals and a can of Chef Boy-r-dee (and I wouldn't feed that to my child).

My Toddler loves these. Granted he is old enough to eat regular table foods now, many allergies stop him from eating alot of what we eat as a family, so we feed Gerber Graduates on those nights, and my son just loves the taste/flavors of the Gerber Graduate meals, and I love the fact that he still gets some veggies in with the meals.

Gerber Graduates saves my life because they are so quick and easy to make, I just pop them in the microwave and in a few minutes I can feed my child a healthy and delicious meal. I don't often have enough time to make a big meal, so these are a great alternative, not to mention my daughter loves them.
