Hello, tap tap tap, is this thing on? What part of "Tupperware is plastic," doesn't Alina understand?
Alina shouldn't have any Tupperware in her cupboards, it's toxic. She should dig her Nalgene bottles out of the basement, but not to use, to recycle, they're also toxic.
It's a sad day when convenience trumps health. Whatever happened to good old canning jars? You know, the ones like your mom used to use. That's what I use.
Instead of re-using your plastic bottles, invest in a few quality stainless steel ones. I would stay away from the lined aluminum bottles, just to be on the safe side. Re-using glass works well for adults. The sport caps on the stainless steel bottles from Kleen Kanteen work great for toddlers, and they even have a baby top. You can find them at heath food stores and on the web.

The reusable, lightweight, and risk free stainless steel Klean Kanteen was introduced in 2004 to encourage better health, hydration, and environmental responsibility.
Better Health: Klean Kanteens are made from #304 stainless steel, the material of choice in the food processing, dairy, and brewery industries. Stainless steel is easy to clean, durable, inert, sanitary, toxin-free, and non-leaching.
Hydration: It's vital for life.
Environmental Responsibility: Klean Kanteens are the stainless steel alternative to plastics. Plastics in landfills and oceans are one of the most alarming of today's environmental stories. - 4 years ago
