Conventional Gerber baby food is not organic. However, Gerber does have an organic line, aptly called Gerber Organic. Nicknamed “farm to highchair,” Gerber claims their organic line is full of USDA Certified Organic products with no added starch and that are non-GMO.

The Gerber Baby is an image of a chubby-cheeked baby with a captivating smile that has become synonymous with the Gerber brand. The slogan "Every Baby is a Gerber Baby" speaks to the company's belief that all babies are special and deserve the best care and nourishment.

Is Gerber Organic Food Safe? No, Gerber organic baby food products also tested high for toxic metals. Per the government subcommittee report, Gerber's Organic Rice Cereal tested up to 76 ppb inorganic arsenic and contained, on average, 65.6 ppb inorganic arsenic.

Only the Best for Baby You can count on them for the highest quality because: 100% of their products meet all U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) requirements. There are five different stages of safety and quality checks from farm to spoon. Every baby food gets over 100 quality checks.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), on March 17, 2023, announced a recall. The recall involved multiple lots of Gerber baby food. The lots were being recalled because they might contain Cronobacter sakazakii bacteria. The Gerber Sooth Pro recall came just a year after Abbott recalled powdered infant formula.

A Stanford University study found organic baby food may have a lower risk of pesticide contamination, but conventional baby food rarely exceeds pesticide limits set by the EPA. “If organic production methods are important to you from an environmental standpoint, you may feel organic is worth the extra cost,” she adds.

In 1928, Gerber held a contest to find a face to represent their baby food advertising campaign. Ann Turner Cook's portrait – with her tousled hair and bright eyes – was sketched and entered, and Gerber selected her to be their public face. Her portrait would become globally recognized.

Organic vs non-organic for your baby If you cannot afford organic formula or baby food, don't stress. There is currently no evidence that children who drink organic milk or formula are healthier than children who drink regular milk or formula. Either way, your child will receive healthy nutrition.

Certified organic ingredients will allow your little one's biological systems to grow and build vital natural defences, while products containing paraffin, parabens, silicon and other chemicals could easily disrupt these systems. Products without synthetic fragrances, additives and preservatives are highly recommended.

Gerber was founded on the ambition to give babies the best start in life. That's why our work doesn't stop at nutrition, and why every day, we take action to protect the planet so Gerber babies will grow and thrive for generations to come.
