baby food pouches in Europe?

[potatopie]

Particularly Italy. We're going to visit the in-laws over Easter and I'm hoping I can buy some while we're there. DS doesn't eat them too often, but they'd be great to have with all the traveling we'll be doing around the country.

I can get them here but the selection is really limited. I was hoping I could find better quality choices in Italy, and also not have to pack a million of them.

I'm in London and previously lived in NYC. I don't think there are many choices here. I'd personally bring them with me.

I am surprised, I lived in London and there were a million choices when I lived there, way more than in the US. I have no idea about Italy though.

Yes lots of choices in London/UK. No idea about Italy though.

My instinct is that there won't be many options, as I really struggled to find any in Switzerland. They had a few, but I had to go to many shops to find them in Geneva anyway. I would honestly buy a bunch and bring them if they'd be really useful for you (I love pouches and we still use them for travelling!). I'll ask on my other International Board to see if anyone knows specifically about Italy.

Odd! Because when potatopie mentioned this I was curious if Switzerland had them. I went on the Coop website, swiss supermarket, for delivery and they had a bunch of them.

Cioccolato might know.

We had no problem finding them in France.
I remember having them in France before I found them in Canada when I would come for holidays.

Hm. I guess I was just unlucky? I should have researched it beforehand and then I would have gone to the right places. I know in Hong Kong they were only available at a specific store but I knew that ahead of time.

I didn't think about checking online. Genius! Thanks MauMau.

I guess researching online is the best starting point. By the time I moved to London we weren't really using them but I noticed at the stores I go to, there weren't many choices compared to my choices in NYC. I found way more options in New York.
