		<description><![CDATA[When a person is fed via g-tube for medical reasons, or due to a disability, there are several reasons homemade blended meals can be better than formula. 
There is no question that formula is convenient. Pop open a can, pour it into a bag, turn on the pump.  Period.  
Here are reasons I prefer homemade blended meals:<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=my1spot.wordpress.com&blog=5708666&post=1365&subd=my1spot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
