Default Ethical to put children on low carb?

Seven months old and he eats veg, fish, meat, butter, full fat yogurt, cheese, apples and some other bits of fruit as well as breast milk.
My peers feed their babies rice cakes, porridge, bread, fruit and some veg.

Think I'm doing the right thing, but it's getting trickier to say no thanks to the offers of bread and rice cakes from well meaning friends and family. I'm starting to doubt myself, so fed him porridge this morning. - I tend to assume porridge oats, potatoe and rice are better as they're not so refined.

I read that kids brought up to be vegetarian can struggle to cope with meat if they try it later on; they don't have the enzymes. I've recently been concerned that if I feed no carb rich foods, maybe he won't adapt to eat them and when he tucks into sandwiches and cake at his first party he'll be ill. I don't want this.

So am I doing the right thing or experimenting with my baby? (He's happy and thriving so far).
