"Nestle Purina PetCare Company knowingly sold pet food products that contained glyphosate, a known carcinogen" A class-action suit filed in Missouri against Nestle. Also, there's a similar suit against Nestle for heavy metals in the chocolate candy bars they make and sell. https://www.classaction.org/news/purina-pet-food-products-contain-known-carcinogen-class-action-lawsuit-claims

Baby food is a HUGE problem too, with heavy metals. There are currently lawsuits against 7 baby food companies, including Gerber, Beechnut, and Sprout Organics for having too much toxic metal, including lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. (See article.) The metals are really bad for a baby's developing brain.

The heavy metal is in the soil where the food is grown, so not even organic grown foods are exempt. The most heavily concentrated heavy metals are in foods grown IN the soil, such as root vegetables like carrots and sweet potatoes, and RICE. And yet rice cereal and rice crisps are marketed specifically for babies, it's everywhere in the stores.

We all consume these heavy metals in our food supply, but by body weight, it's far worse for a 10 or 15 lb infant.
This article sums up heavy metals and has suggestions for baby food. You can do your own research from there.

Please share this info with any parents you know.

I never trusted baby foods when my children were young, so I bought a manual food grinder and just ground up whatever I was making for dinner - pork chops or chicken, steamed broccoli, and rice pretty much was dinner every night. They loved it and never had commercial baby food, or bottles. All three were breastfed until weened and on regular food.
I used exactly this and could add milk to it.
We also didn't use pampers; I used cloth diapers.
