    Foods To Avoid Feeding Your Parrot
    Avocado
    Caffeine
    Candy and Chocolate
    Junk foods (chips, cookies, pastries)
    Large amounts of dairy products
    Mushrooms
    Onions

    Please note that with all fresh fruits, vegetables, and other
    foods, your parrot should not be given anything with salt,
    sugars, chocolates or caffeine. All fruits and vegetables should
    be washed with a fruit and vegetable cleaner from your local
    supermarket. It really does make a difference! Some fruits and
    vegetables such as apples, strawberries, and cantaloupe may
    contain extremely high amounts of pesticides. This can vary
    depending on the time of year and country that the foods are
    being imported from. It is strongly recommended to feed
    organically grown foods.  Caution: Remember to remove any
    uneaten fresh food from the cage before it spoils.
