Gerber Has Named Their Newest Gerber Baby And People Are In LOVE

Gerber is one of America’s most well-known baby food products. Founded in 1927 and originally producing canned fruits and vegetables, founder Daniel Frank Gerber soon found that he could produce baby food at the suggestion of his pediatrician, who recommended making hand-strained food for their 7-month-old daughter, Sally. The rest, as they say, is history.

The Story Behind Gerber

The actual story behind Gerber getting into the baby food game has been told one of two ways. The first story says that Dorothy, Daniel’s wife, convinced him to create baby food using the industrial Fremont Canning Company that they owned in order to make life easier for mother’s across the country.
