Teething biscuits
Mildly sweet and plain, dissolving into a soft, pasty texture as it's chewed or gummed.
Lens analyzedTeething biscuits are firm, dissolvable crackers designed for babies to gnaw on as their first teeth come in. They're meant to soften as a baby chews and mouths them, unlike a regular cracker that would stay hard and could pose a choking risk. Many are low in added sugar compared to typical cookies.
Where it comes from
Teething biscuits developed as a purpose-made alternative to giving infants hard, unsuitable snacks during the teething stage, becoming a fixture of baby food aisles across North America. Recipes and shapes have shifted over the decades as guidance around infant feeding and choking risk has evolved.
Buying it
Check the age and stage guidance on the package, since biscuits are formulated for specific developmental readiness. Look at the ingredient list if you want to compare sugar content between brands.
Storing it
Store the box or bag in the pantry, where unopened biscuits keep for about a year; reseal the package tightly after opening to keep them from going stale or soft.
Keeps about 1 year in the pantry.
