While there are certain items babies can't try, it doesn't stop adults from sampling a few baby foods out of curiosity and nostalgia. One man went as far as trying baby formula, and surprisingly, he received no judgment from online viewers.

An expensive taste test

When it comes to our little ones, spending thousands of rands monthly on one person becomes a reality for many parents. One woman even shared that she spent R3 000 on her four-week-old baby.

Baby formula is one of the items that don't come cheap, and proud father and TikTokker Dzunisani Khoza, who uses the handle @dzunniekhoza, thought he'd give the tin of powder a try.
