Gerber® Oat Baby Cereal (Add Water)
Introduce new flavours and textures to baby as they grow with the next stage of GERBER cereals!
This product should only be fed to seated, supervised babies.
Product Highlights
When baby is ready to start solids, GERBER Stage 1 Oat Baby Cereal is an ideal first food to introduce to their developing digestive system. Healthcare experts recommend baby's first foods be iron-rich - like iron-fortified oat cereal1. Designed specifically for baby's nutritional needs, each serving is full of nutrients, such as iron and calcium, and probiotics to help baby grow and smile. Our cereal is made from a single grain, ensuring it is creamy, smooth, and easy-to-digest for your little one. Made with no added sugar or salt**, and with no preservatives, artificial colours or flavours. Since our cereals already contain milk, all you have to do is add water for quick, super convenient, and wholesome goodness.
We have updated our GERBER cereals packaging to match the rest of our Gerber family products. As part of our on-going commitment to provide the best nutrition for your growing little one, we have made changes to our cereal recipes, which is reflected in the Nutrition Facts Table and Ingredient List. Some of the changes include a reduction in sugar* and the removal of palm olein.
As a result, you might notice our textures of the new cereals are different as we have adjusted our preparation instructions to suggest adding more or less water to get the perfect texture for your baby.

Bonjour,
Je suis nutritionniste et j'aimerais valider une information. Sur le tableau de valeur nutritionnelle du site web, on peut lire que la teneur en fer est de 100% pour la portion de 28g. Hors sur la boite que j'ai entre les mains, il est indiqué 64% pour le fer. Pouvez vous m'indiquer quelle valeur est la bonne ? A laquelle dois-je me fier ?
Merci d'Avance
