I've received this message from Heinz :
"Dear Linda,
Thank you for taking the time to contact us. Lemon juice is used to keep the surface of the meat from darkening in the jar. Chicken does not darken so lemon juice is not needed.
Mechanically separated is the process used to remove the chicken meat from the bones.
Regards,
Cynthia Civitella, Consumer Services
H. J. Heinz Company of Canada"
So ... as lemon is a natural preservative ...
Would you give Heinz Baby Food to your ferrets ???
Thanks again for your comments ... It's really appreciated
And a special thank you to Chris Lloyd for the infos on "mechanically separated chicken" process ...

> > Is seems unlikley there's a significant amount of lemon juice in the others. What baby would want to eat a lemony, sour tasting baby food?
