With twinkling eyes and a cheeky smile, Werribee baby James Jayasekera is a natural in front of the camera.

The one-year-old is one of five finalists in a statewide competition to find the first-ever face of organic baby food brand Baby Bistro.

A Baby Bistro survey found Werribee bubs were among the fussiest eaters in the state, with local families among the top consumers of home-delivered organic meals.

Mum Simona said she preferred to buy organic because it was the most nutritious and satisfying for her son.

“His favourite is, by far, the osso bucco,” she said.
