I just happened upon a scary article at Daddy Types that warns about the dangers of using plastics for food storage and consumption. Apparently the plastic can leach certain chemicals into whatever is being contained. Once consumed, even in very small amounts, the checmials can do ‘Bad Things’(tm) to you and yours.

Read the article for details (link below), but some general advice they give-

• Use PVC-free plastics
• Don’t store foods and liquids in plastic
• Use metal or glass containers when you can
• Use metal utensils (not glass ones)
• Throw away bottles when they become cloudy (like all of ours immediately following their initial boiling to sanitize them)
