Stonyfield Farm YoBaby is turning 10 this year and to celebrate the special occasion they decided to increase their product line to include YoBaby Organic Meals!
What is YoBaby Organic Meals?
YoBaby Organic Meals is a 3-in-1 combination of protein-packed yogurt, fruit and veggie purée in a single 6 oz cup. They are a convenient way for moms to ensure their babies and toddlers are getting the important trio food groups at meal time.
Each “grab-n-go cup” provides a growing toddler with more than 35% of the needed daily protein and calcium nutritional requirements in one meal to help build strong bones.
“We know getting balanced nutrition for your baby or toddler isn’t easy, since Mom’s hectic life and a picky baby or toddler can add up to one big challenge,” says Stonyfield Farm President and CE-Yo Gary Hirshberg. “So we’ve combined the YoBaby yogurt your child loves with a unique mix of tastes. They’ll love it!”
YoBaby Organic Meals come in three baby lip smacking flavors. Your baby can enjoy the Pear & Green Bean, Peach & Squash, or Apple & Sweet Potato.
Why feed your baby YoBabyYogurt?
Yogurt is one of the healthiest foods you can feed your family and Stonyfield Farm declares YoBaby features only the finest, all natural and certified organic ingredients for your developing baby. It does not have any artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives.
Furthermore, Yobaby contains six live active cultures (more than any other leading brands) which are important to keep the intestine healthy and aids in boosting the overall immune system. They are (quoted from Stonyfield):
- L. bulgaricus
- S. thermophilus
- Lactobacillus acidophilus, which provides various health benefits in the gastrointestinal tract;
- Bifidobacteria (Bifidus), to stimulate the immune system, help prevent common digestive ailments and support healthy growth and development of the digestive tract;
- Lactobacillus casei, which enhances positive bacterial balance in the intestine;
- Lactobacillus rhamnosus.
Their exclusive blend of natural probiotic cultures has been determined to enhance digestive health by:
- Restoring probiotic levels in the gut after antibiotic use.
- Improving carbohydrate and protein digestion and absorption.
- Increasing all intestinal probiotic levels with regular consumption.
Yogurt is also a nutrient-dense food meaning it packs big nutritional punch in a small volume. Its perfect for children with tiny tummies, since they tend not to eat a lot at one time, making it vital to ensure they are getting the proper amounts of protein and calcium.
Tried and Tested
I tried the Pear & Green Beans myself before giving to Aiden. I didn’t know what to expect since the flavor combination sounded rather interesting to me and the thoughts of green beans being in yogurt…hmmmm. Honestly, it wasn’t bad and it had a good smooth (but slightly more grainy than regular yogurt) tasty texture.
The real test was trying to get my picky toddler to eat it. Aiden is one of those children who would rather throw his food or use it as finger paint. I worry on a daily basis if he is getting the proper nutrition, because not much food looks like it actually enters his mouth. Meal time with him is like a three ring circus and I have to jump through fiery food hoops to get him to eat!
I had a difficult time getting him to try the YoBaby Pear & Green Bean Meal, but after I got him to consume the first spoonful he ate the entire cup with ease. He seemed to enjoy it and I loved the satisfaction of knowing he actually ate something organically nutritious!
Suggested retail price is $1.29 for a single 6-ounce serving. I found Yobaby Meals at my local Wegmans in the organic section, but also check your natural food stores. They should be national by the middle of August.

I would love to feed ToBaby Meals to my toddler, something she’d love and yet still be healthy for her!
I think the yobaby meals are such a great idea. Toddlers do not have a huge stomach to be eating multiple jars of food. Getting fruit and veggies in one meal is wonderful! I would love to feed this to my toddler, he already love the yobaby yogurt!
My girl loves YoBaby yogurt, so I think she would like these meals too.
