our 7 month old loves going out with us and we always carry her baby food but when it comes to dessert we were wondering if she can share ours - we both usually order vanilla ice cream and we dont want to start her on chocolate for atleast 2 years.

Keep in mind the sooner you start her on sugar the more likely she will love it as she grows older. The longer you can keep her from it the more likely she may not even care for it when she grows up. I love sweets and it has been a battle to not over indulge. Ice cream is not the healthiest and she would be better off if you could teach her that fruits or vegetables are treats.

We have been giving our son a little bit of ice-cream since he was about 5 months old, he is 7 1/2 months now. As long as you don't give her a lot, she should be okay.

vanilla does not equal chocolate, just so you know.
vanilla ice cream comes from cream, a dairy product.
Your not planning on making this poor baby fat, are you? How do you have room for desert when you go out? After the main meal, we get our check and waddle out.
I havn't answered your question yet! I'm sorry.
I'm sure it is safe, just put a little bit on your spoon and see if s/he likes it! Make sure it isn't too cold though. And please, don't spoil the poor kid!

I think it's fine at 7 months. We gave our baby ice cream at that age. Just watch out, because it's cow's milk and too much could make them develop an allergy.

I don't see why not. I can't imagine a tiny bit would hurt her. If you are really apprehensive you could order vanilla frozen yogurt instead. YUM! My daughter hates the cold. I made her diluted apple juice popsicles and I could tell she loved the flavor but couldn't stand the fact that it was so cold.

sure give her a little ice cream she'll love it. My 9 month old has been eating ice cream for a while now.

To be safe wait until age 1, but if you wanted to put a little teeny bit you your spoon for a taste it probably won't hurt anything.
