    No, because the surface of the container hasn't been cleaned and may contain harmful bacteria. Also, bacteria from the baby's mouth contaminates the food and the bacteria can grow and multiply before the food is served again. Too many bacteria can make the baby sick.

    • Thus you CAN feed your child out of the jar as long as you wash off the jar first. It will then be as clean as any other dish you may use
