Real Food Blends was created to provide tube-fed people with variety and easy access to 100% real food
Each Real Food Blends meal contains 5-8 simple ingredients and is the closest to a homemade blenderized tube feed compared to other enteral formulas.
For those who are already blending fresh foods for use in a feeding tube at home, our meals provide a convenient alternative. Our ready-to-feed pouches are particularly useful when blending isn’t possible or is a challenge, such as during travel, hospital stays, work, or school.
For individuals who rely on tube feeding formula, Real Food Blends can be used in conjunction with tube feeding formula. It can also be used as a primary source of nutrition. Our meals are intended to effortlessly introduce real food and nutritional variety into their diet. They are not formula, but pureed meals made from 100% real food that can be administered through a feeding tube. By replacing some enteral formula daily with a Real Food Blends meal, you can effectively incorporate the benefits of real food into a tube-fed person’s diet.

If these meals are being used as the primary source of nutrition, we recommend adding a multivitamin, along with sodium and calcium daily. Please consult your healthcare professional for individual nutrition recommendations to meet your needs.
We are not medical professionals and are not making any medical claims about our food. Our meals are truly just real food. Please work with your medical team before making any changes to your diet, especially if you are tube-fed. See our FAQs for more details.
