Honey Teddy Grahams OK for 1 year old?

[jec2]

Honey is ok now right? So, honey Teddy Grahams are ok too, right? Just checking. Thanks :)

i believe you are supposed to wait until 1 year for honey. since the teddy grahams are cooked (and the heat would kill any bacteria in the honey, yes?) i would think they would be totally a-ok, especially after 1 year. not an expert! just what i think!!

Only raw honey is an issue before one year, so from that standpoint honey teddy grahams are never bad.

Just this past week we had a botulism scare in our house - our 8-month old went from crawling and standing to not even rolling over basically overnight. (She had some other symptoms as well). After trips to the pediatrician and the ER (where the doctor asked if we had fed our daughter honey) we did some research and found that baking does not kill the spores in honey that may lead to botulism. I had been feeding her honey graham crackers, but of course I've stopped. I can try to post a link if you are interested. Anyway, our daughter recovered from whatever it was she had (probably not botulism, probably just a virus of some sort), thankfully, but I thought I'd pass this info along.

I'm not certain about the honey, but don't they have a high sugar content as well as trans fats? I would avoid them. If you want somethign similiar, still with honey, trader joe's has Go Go Grahams.

OMG, Go-Go Grahams are heaven in a box. TJ's also sells this delicous yogurt cream cheese that is SO good when spread on the grahams.

DS also likes Earths Best Organic Crunchin blocks. They make a cinnamon graham flavor or something like that.
