Child feeding has been the focus of attention for various international, national and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the most important of which is the United Nations International Children?s Emergency Fund (UNICEF). In this sense, some efforts for the development of infant foods have been conducted to improve the nutritional quality of this susceptible demographic population. Future perspectives on food development in terms of food science, technology and nutrition for babies and children will be given in this first chapter as an introduction to this book.
