Food you can trust
from the very beginning
At Be Spooned, we believe baby food should be simple, nutrient-dense, and made with intention. Because babies are uniquely vulnerable, we hold ourselves to higher standards than conventional food — starting at the source and continuing as we grow.
While we are still in the pre-launch phase, here is exactly what you can expect from us.
Food you can trust
from the very beginning
At Be Spooned, we believe baby food should be simple, nutrient-dense, and made with intention. Because babies are uniquely vulnerable, we hold ourselves to higher standards than conventional food — starting at the source and continuing as we grow.
While we are still in the pre-launch phase, here is exactly what you can expect from us.
Starting at the source
We begin with real, whole ingredients, sourced as close to the farm as possible.
Some of our key ingredients — like sweet potatoes, squash, and other vegetables that grow in the ground — are nutritional powerhouses. They are also naturally susceptible to absorbing trace heavy metals from soil, even when grown organically.
Because of this, we:
Work with farmers and ingredient suppliers who test their crops
Set strict internal specifications for acceptable heavy metal levels
Prioritize suppliers who can demonstrate consistent, low results over time
Food safety doesn’t start in the lab — it starts in the field.

Heavy metals: our commitment
Heavy metals are a reality of our environment, but exposure matters most for babies.
As we bring Be Spooned to market, we are committed to meeting — and where possible exceeding — the most protective standards available.
Specifically:
We formulate to comply with California Prop 65 limits
We align with European Union (EU) standards, which are among the strictest in the world for infant food
We use ingredient-level testing and specifications to reduce risk before production even begins
As we scale production, we plan to:
Conduct third-party laboratory testing for lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury
Test finished products on a batch-by-batch basis
Continue raising our standards as testing technology and guidance evolve

Transparency as we grow
We’re early — and we want to be honest about that.
Right now, we are:
Producing samples and running R&D
Finalizing suppliers and formulations
Building toward full commercial production
As we move into scaled manufacturing, we will:
Add third-party testing results
Share more detailed safety and sourcing information
Clearly communicate any updates to our standards
Parents deserve transparency, not perfection claims.
