peanut butter at age 1...

I heard peanut butter should not be given till at least 3 yrs of age. Its considered one of the 'choking' foods. A child can choke on it.

if you do decide to give your child peanut butter after 1 yr of age, i would suggest that you know what to do if your child starts choking. Just in case....

in case you wondered, here are other foods that a child under 3 shouldn't have, whole hot dogs, nuts, chunks of meat, whole grapes, hard or sticky candy, popcorn or raw vegetables.

these also may cause choking. Just an FYI
