glass containersToss your plastic containers for glass ones instead.

Plastic contains a chemical called bisphenol-A that is released from plastics as they age or heat up – even from when they are washed.  BPA can get into your food and cause health problems with reproductive cycles, obesity and hyper-activity.

So, grab some glass or BPA FREE storage containers the next time you’re at Target, Goodwill or even Yard Sales.  You’ll be making a big change in becoming healthier and greener!

We’ve made the switch over the past year. I’ve tried to convince my mother in law that she needs to stop reusing all those GLAD containers that luncheon meat comes in, but it’s fallen on deaf ears. anyway, we’ve gone to TJMaxx. They almost always have glass containers on sale!
