Ella's Kitchen Organic Baby, 3.5 Ounce Pouches (Pack of 7)

After reading the reviews here stating that the Iron content of Ella's Kitchen Spinach packs was incorrect, I checked out their website to see for myself. Hmm.. no announcement there stating that an error had been made. So, I contacted the company wondering if it was a misunderstanding. No, it's true. The Spinach flavor only has 4-6% DV of Iron... NOT 120% as has been clearly indicated on the pouches I have been buying for my son for OVER A YEAR! I have been purchasing these packs by the case thinking that if my son did not eat enough other Fe-rich foods on a particular day, at least he would eat this. I mean you know how difficult it can be to get little ones to take in enough iron, so I thought this was a great option. IF I HAD KNOWN that it only contained 4 or 6%, then I would have given my son other additional Fe-rich foods or continued making my own purees. I guess I should have known it was too good to be true when I noticed that the first ingredient is in fact APPLES not Spinach as the front of the pouches would have you believe.

What upsets me the most is that there is not even a warning or announcement on Amazon or at Target stores stating that there has been a mistake?!! If the company knows, why isn't this info passed on to the consumer?!!? Here I thought I was purchasing (a more expensive) but also more nutritionally complete product for my baby and to find out it's just as void of nutrients as all of the other brands on the shelves. I really thought this company was exciting and different and focused on kids' nutrition and health. I guess not. I am asking for a refund at the very least. Honestly, the company is lucky if parents don't decide to take up a lawsuit for their negligence in getting the word out. The incorrectly labeled packs should be recalled like anything elsenot left on the shelves to trick parents! Normally, I am not one to overact and am certainly not litigious in the least. Humans (and companies run by humans) make mistakes. It's natural. But as a physcian and a mother, I am really annoyed by the lack of respect shown to consumers in failing to notify the community of this error.

This flavor does not actually contain 120% of daily iron for babies, as still listed on most packaging. This was a grievous error (a "printing error" according to the company). This flavor only contains 6% iron, in the realm of most other baby food pouch products. Unfortunately, this company has failed to pull mislabeled products or notify distributors of the long running error.

As simple as that: nutritional information is NOT accurate !!!

Iron content in purple bag is only 2%, NOT 45% as stated on the pouch itself !!!!!!!!!!!

Light green pouch "Rutabagas", contains Iron: 4%, NOT 120% stated on the package itself !!!!!!!

We have fed 2 packs daily: 1 light green "rutabagas" and 1 purple one "pumpkins" to our girl since she was 3.5 month old.

What a disappointment !!! This company should be held accountable for causing anemic, malnutritioned infants.

Wow, I can hardly keep my emotions !!!

FDA control anyone ...

We spent two years feeding our iron-deficient son this product only to find out (via a sticker placed atop the old nutritional label) that Ella's Kitchen Spinach Apples + Rutabagas contains very little iron at all.

Have a look for yourself. Here's the old label:

Iron: 120%

Vit C: 15%

Calcium: 70%

Sodium: 20mg

And here's the new one:

Iron : 4%

Vit C: 0%

Calcium: 4%

Sodium: 75mg

In other words, for two years the nutritional label was bogus. What the product actually contained was 1/30th the iron and almost 4 times the salt. This is completely unacceptable and suggests a lack of quality control that makes it very difficult for us to trust Ella's Kitchen's other products and nutritional claims.

We'll be removing them from our shopping list.

I also have been buying these pouches because of their supposed iron content. The broccoli, pears and peas pouch has a label that states it contains 45% of the daily recommended allowance of iron. The sweet potato, pumpkin, apple and blueberry pouch also states on the label that it contains 45% of the daily recommended allowance of iron. This is not true! The company's own website states these pouches only have 2-4% of the daily recommended allowance of iron yet the incorrectly labeled pouches are still on the market. I will not buy from this company again.
