Are Safer Alternatives Available?
Glass and food grade stainless steel are the only known SAFE alternatives available at this time. We recommend avoiding plastics with the "7" recycling symbol or PC on the bottom of the container.
Many companies have already responded to consumer demand by replacing BPA in their polycarbonate plastics with an alternate plastic.
It is important to note that many new plastics have not been tested for safety - another reason we need more regulation over consumer products.
