FYI you can make your own pouches at home! Buy reusable squeeze pouches online (fun styles and colors to entice the kid) and fill with whatever ingredients you'd like. My kid ate a mixture of store-bought and homemade throughout the pouch years. Everyone who's saying "just don't introduce pouches..." either has the luxury of always being the child's caregiver or just hasn't gotten that far down the road. It's like frozen or fast food. At some point your kid will find out about it. Don't act like it doesn't exist, just offer a better alternative.
