ericskiff says: I just checked our tupperware and it says 5 in the triangle with PP beneath it. According to this list, we're safe. Check your stuff, it can't hurt to be safe. good info; you can learn so much on this site Crikey. I've been drinking out of PBA-laden water bottles for years. I guess it's a good thing that I'm too lazy to wash them in hot water ... right? Plastics "leak" this stuff out at room temperature. Damn.... I guess I'm dead then. Don't "trust" your Tupperware. The plasticizers used to make things like Tupperware flexible are also harmful and are released from the plastic when heated. Thus you should not heat your food in plastic nor put hot food into plastic containers (not true of Styrofoam...). We transfer all our food out of plastic when reheating or use Pyrex containers. |
