Wheat or wheat products — Wheat is the most common grain allergen, and you should wait to introduce it until your baby is 6 to 8 months old, and can handle rice and oats.
Honey — Honey can harbor spores of Clostridium botulinum (botulism), which can grow and produce life-threatening toxins in your baby's intestinal tract.
Whole milk — Early introduction of cow's milk can cause childhood allergies. And your baby doesn't need it — for the first year, stick to breast milk or formula.
Egg white — It's okay to give egg yolks to an infant at 9 months, but wait a year on the protein-rich whites.
Citrus — Ask your pediatrician for the go-ahead before giving citrus juices to a baby; they occasionally cause allergies.
Peanut butter — Peanuts or peanut butter can provoke violent allergic reactions, and shouldn't be given to children younger than 3 years.
Foods to avoid at 1-2 years
Low-fat milk — Toddlers younger than 2 years need the fat in whole milk. Once they're 2, you can start giving them lower-fat milk.
Peanuts — Peanuts can cause violent allergic reactions. They're also large enough for a child to choke on. To be on the safe side, don't feed your child peanuts (or peanut butter) until she's 3 years old, especially if either parent has a history of peanut allergies.
Hot dogs — Toddlers can easily choke on bite-size pieces of hot dog, unless you cut the dog lengthwise before slicing it into quarter-inch pieces.
Whole grapes — Cut grapes into quarters before serving; a whole grape can get lodged in a child's throat.
Raw carrots — Carrots should be shredded or cooked, so they don't get stuck in small throats.
String cheese — Make sure you shred the cheese for your child; don't cut it into chunks.
Hard candies, nuts, popcorn, lollipops — All these snacks are potential choking hazards. If you can't cut it into small pieces, don't serve it.
Peanuts — Peanuts are one of the most allergenic foods, and can cause violent allergic reactions. They're also a choking hazard. To be on the safe side, don't feed your child peanuts (or peanut butter) until she's 3 years old, especially if either parent has a history of peanut allergies.
