Beechnut

I had purchased jars of BeechNut baby foods. Each one was still well within the expiration date. However, the jars (although safety sealed & still "popped") had what looked to be mold and or rust inside the threads of the jar/top closure, as well as coating the underside of the lid. I began to open all of the jars from this brand and everyone I had was contaminated.

Bought beechnut stage 2 baby food (bananas). It expires on august 2010. When open there was MOLD in the lid and inside the food. Grandfather takes care of baby. Mom arrived home just in time for dinner, he was about to feed her baby food. Baby has been eating beechnut since small with unexplicable episodes of vomiting. Dr.'s clear her for reflux, so now it makes me wonder if she ate poisioning baby food all along. On july 18 2009 baby has ate baby food and vomit in front of alot of people in a baby's b-day party??

Opened a jar of Gerber baby food-fruit stage 2, it was soured. Had to throw 2 jars away. Date was not expired.

Opened several jars of stage 3 Beechnut baby food-country vegetables with Turkey and Country vegetables with chicken. The vegetables are so hard the baby spits them out and then won't eat. I tried to mash the potatoes and carrots & peas with a spoon and found them to be too hard to even mash with a spoon. I called Beechnut and told them their food was not cooked done. They argued it was. Perhaps its not even real vegetables! Who knows! Please check into it! Companies are always putting their profits ahead of the consumers even if it means someone's life is endangered.
