Decidely variable -- about what they'll eat, too. (I think they're a couple of months older than the Guppy.) Seriously, try her on whatever you're eating -- they were both willing to eat (only mildly spicy) shrimp and veggies from my plate at a Chinese restaurant.
The things I've been told to be careful of are whether they can chew well enough to reduce whatever pieces they're given to digestable size, and whether they can protect their airway well enough that they're not going to choke on a piece that's a little too big. ("Do I need to cut up the grapes?")
My favorite "babies are different" story is from a while back. Two daughters of different friends, about the same age, had very different priorities. Little Miss Extrovert wanted to SIT UP, so that she could see and interact with people. Once she could do that, getting places wasn't urgent -- she was happy to interact from across the room, even, and good at telling when someone was paying attention to her or addressing her. Little Miss World Traveller didn't care what you were doing, she wanted to GO. She was doggedly trying to crawl when she still had to do a five-point crawl because she couldn't hold her head up for very long.
