Found something in Gerber Jar..UPDATE

As you may remember I posted that I was feedling my son at the mall straight from the gerber jar and noticed (after he had already ate some) that there is a white substance sticking to the side of the jar. I just called gerber and they are sending me a label tomorrow so I can send the jar back and they will investigate what it is. I know the jar was wrapped and the woman at gerber said it might be "starch seperation" but I am still worried. I'm sure its nothing, gerber will send me a letter when they determine what it is..I will keep you all updated.

UPDATE
I received a letter today that states " a small stone is embedded in the glass container. This would of course not affect the wholesomeness of the food in any way..." The letter goes on to describe how they use recycled broken glass and sometimes it can end up in the finished product and they will be bringing the jar to the attention of the manufacturer and every effort will be made so that this does not happen again. They also sent about 5 coupons for free baby food and products. I cant believe that something like this could happen but I am satisfied with their response and will continue to use their food.

I'm glad you got a response and it was an honest one. They could have dismissed it as "starch separation" as the woman on the phone initially said and not done any additional research.

Wow, I am glad you got a response though. Thankfully it was nothing too bad for your son, but it really makes you think now, doesn't it?

Exactly. I'm glad that they were at least honest. Chat Icon
