What supplementary foods are given to an 8-month-old baby?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Variety increases in supplementary foods for 8-month-old babies. The transition can be made from puree consistency to fork-mashed, or even soft finger foods (avocado slices, boiled squash, banana). Up to 2 egg yolks per week, well-cooked ground meat/chicken (minced or very finely ground), lentil soup (smooth), yogurt, molasses (1 teaspoon), vegetables with butter are recommended. Salt, sugar, honey (strictly forbidden before 12 months due to botulism risk), and cow's milk as the main drink are not given. Iron needs should be met regularly with red meat, egg yolk, molasses. 2-3 meals of supplementary food per day, with breast milk or follow-up milk still being the main source.
