There is also the issue of parental taste. Generations raised on too much sugar and salt find food without it bland. We need to reeducate the palates of more than just babies. Feeding endless fruit juices to toddlers is rotting their teeth.

I don't understand this argument - surely the parents don't taste the over sugared baby food, any more than pet owners taste the cat food? It has to be the sugar industry pushing their evil product to the manufacturers for profit.

Most mothers/carers taste food given to babies to check its not too hot or cold. If it is unpalatable to them they may not buy it again. The diets of toddlers reflect what their parents eat or can afford to eat. Highly processed food is cheaper than real food. So its a viscous cycle of crap diets.
