That’s the way it works. If you don’t know what it is or how it tastes, it’s interesting. When you know it’s slop, you’re not interested. It’s human nurture. (yup, nurture)
Babies put things into their mouths as part of learning about their world. It is “normal” behavior and we all did it. If we don’t want them to put any particular item in their mouth, don’t leave it where she can find it. Most of us just took it back out and said “no”.

Love it. I once watched in horror as a parent friend of mine pulled a slug out of his child’s mouth. :X

What Ellie’s mistake was, was to put the food up on a highchair. She should have put it on the floor where everything else was.

“Normal” is one of the many phenomena that exist only in the minds of observers.

It’s all about “who” is deciding what is good to eat. But.. on the plus side, April(?) is building up a fine immune system.
