I didn't know that and I have given my wee girl a taster of strawberry too, she is 6 months. She hasn't had a whole one, just a little nibble I offered her. I just looked it up and there seems to be conflicting info - apparently in the US it's recommended not to offer them before the little one is at least 2 years old. There seem to be various reasons why they should be avoided, but the most common one I found said that they are a common cause of allergies including excema and asthma. I don't know if that's true or not though!
Only avoid things like that if your family has a history of allergies.If you give them a little and they like it,providing it hasn't caused a reaction why not give it to them. There's so much conflicting advice.
strawberry yogs used to affect the little ones in my family just red around the mouth but actual strwberries never did!
Jack would be distraught if he couldnt have them we get through 2 or more punnets a week and cherrys, blueberries, rasberrys, bananas, the boy loves his fruit, if only beanie would share his enthusiasm
