Food?

I feel like I’m torturing my babe. He’s 5.5 months and is dying to eat our food lol. I was wanting to wait till 6 months of exclusive breastfeeding but I’m not sure. I feel bad for eating in front of him and he’s showing all the signs of readiness, should I just give in and start introducing food? I know at this stage it’s just for fun but I want to make sure he’s really ready and I’m not just pushing it on him.
