US baby food brand Serenity Kids has introduced a new line of baby food pouches inspired by international flavours, called World Explorer. The pouches bring flavours from around the world, including Thailand, Argentina, Japan, Mexico, the Mediterranean and India. The line includes free-range chicken coconut curry, grass-fed beef chimichurri, wild-caught salmon teriyaki, free-range chicken tikka masala, grass-fed beef kebab and free-range chicken Mexican stew.

The 'World Explorer' range features shelf-stable, BPA-free pouches designed to appeal to young taste buds while meeting their nutritional needs. Each serving contains a balanced macronutrient profile with 5g of protein and 5g of fat. In addition, the pouches have less than 3g of sugar and no added sugar, as well as more protein and "more healthy fat than the leading better-for-you baby food competitors," said the company. The new varieties are made with ethically sourced, regeneratively farmed meats and Certified USDA Organic vegetables, herbs and spices. The new culinary-inspired pouches are available at Walmart, Amazon and on the brand's website for $3.99.
