SAFE FOOD STORAGE, UTENSILS and DINNERWARE
Many of the food storage options currently on the market are plastic. These plastics can become unstable when they are put in the microwave, frozen put through the dishwasher or just with wear and tear. Any of these processes can accelerate the break down of the plastic and release dangerous chemicals that can leach into the food we put into our bodies. Obviously these materials are not ideal to store our food in.
Fortunately there are other products out there that are free of plastic, PVC, BPA, and other plasticizers.
In today’s eco-aware environment these fantastic products that are not only safe for your family, but are also free of plastic,BPA, PVC and Plasticizers.
