i think that my daughter is an exeption, but i think that she has developed an allergy to beef. she ate the chicken and turkey meals just fine, loved them in fact, but when we moved on to the graduates foods every time she ate the beef stew, she would vomit copiously...it was the ONLY time she's thrown up in her short life! (she's now 13 months.) after two times, we stopped giving her the beef graduates, but then we gave her the beef 3rd foods, and she threw up after that. now we are on a beef-free plan, but she still enjoys the chicken/turkey.
i say go slow...try it out and if the baby likes it, why not?? it's easier than grinding up your own meat, depending on your schedule.
