I want to feed my second child homemade baby food when he is ready because it is cheaper and more nutritional. The only problem is I don't know what gadget to get. I want something that will make food for all the stages, pureed for just starting out all the way up to chunky (like stage 3 baby food). I have a blender but it only blends what is around the blade and anything not directly in the path of the blade just sits there while the blade spins. Any good blenders or gadgets that you know of (from experience preferably) that will do the job? I don't have a whole lot of money to spend on the gadge either. Thanks in advance!

To some of those who said they used a food processor for their children, especially one from Wal-Mart, any recommendations on which one to get? Which model have you had success with so I have an idea of what to get? Thanks so much!

I have a baby food maker by kid co. Look at their web site, it is at kidco.com. This thing is great. You just put the food in, turn the handle and it mashes the food and seperates the gunk that you don't want to give them. It comes in a great carry case with a little bowl and spoon so you can even use it when eating out. I had tried a food processor first and the mess involved is such a pain. This is so much easier to clean out. Their web site also has some recipies and ideas for what foods are good for what ages.

Best solution I know of is the Vitamix blender. It will do it all, but it is expensive--over $400, unless maybe you could find a goo used one on eBay.
We can accomplish everything you mentioned with a combination of our Waring blender with the clover-leaf shaped glass container, which doesn't have the problem you experienced, and a food processor for the chunkier stages.

Get a food processor. It can do all of the stages you want, and it is great for a lot of things you cook for your whole family. I can't live without mine.
