OT Chick Peas
Ground up obviously, what age would you introduce to a baby, no history of

If you'd be more or less conservative with soy, I'd use do chickpeas at the same time. (And any other legume / pulse). Phoebe |

If you'd be more or less conservative with soy, I'd use do chickpeas at the same time. (And any other legume / pulse). Peas are a legume, though, and typically a first-food. So the rule doesn't seem to apply to all legumes. And peanuts are a legume, but recommendations are for delaying *them* until age three or so. One of Vernon's favorite foods at about 8 months of age was hummus. I didn't *decide* to feed it to him, though--he snagged it from me g! -- Be well, Barbara (Julian [6], Aurora [4], and Vernon's [2] mom) All opinions expressed in this post are well-reasoned and insightful. Needless to say, they are not those of my Internet Service Provider, its other subscribers or lackeys. Anyone who says otherwise is itchin' for a fight. -- with apologies to Michael Feldman |

I don't know that they *should* be a first food, though - the allergic sequence calls them a 12-month food, and they're on Dr. Sears' "most allergenic" list. And peanuts are a legume, but recommendations are for delaying *them* until age three or so. Peanuts are a freakish food, though, in that they act like things they aren't.

Caterpillar is a big fan of refried beans and oranges, neither of which are on the list of approved foods for her. (So maybe I would feed her chickpeas - but I wouldn't necessarily tell someone else to feed their baby chickpeas based on that.) Phoebe |
