Do you remember the days of feeding the baby, when it seemed more food wound up on the baby’s face, chair, and the floor, than in the baby’s mouth? The NBFF reminds us of those days with a Baby Food Eating Contest. Participants work in pairs trying to feed a jar of baby food to their partner – while blindfolded!
