Rationale 1: Although honey can contain botulism spores that cannot be detoxified by the infant younger than one year old, it does not cause an allergic reaction.
Rationale 2: Carrots, beets, and spinach contain nitrates and should not be given before four months of age.
Rationale 3: The addition of pork is delayed until the infant is 8 to 10 months because meats are hard to digest.
Rationale 4: Cow's milk, eggs, and peanuts are foods that have been associated with food allergies.
