I am a stay at home mom. My daughter is just starting on baby food and i would like to prepare everything for a day or two. the problem is im not sure what kind of containers can be used ( i heard somewhere that regular plastic storage container are not good) and how long can i store them in the fridge once i open the container i bought it in.
Answer
BABY FOOD: LASTS 1 - 3 DAYS IN FRIDGE ONCE OPENED
An open jar of strained fruits and veggies lasts two-to-three days in the fridge. Opened cooked meat and vegetable combos need to go after a day or two. Meat and veggie combos should go after two days, tops. The bottom line: Don't leave open jars of baby food in the fridge longer than three days. A hidden danger with baby food is that parents may feed babies right out of the jar, so saliva transferred to the jar can promote bacterial growth when placed back in the fridge. If you're using a jar more than once, make sure you portion out what you're going to use, so the dirty spoon doesn't go back into the jar.
