I find it amazing how little our MSM has done to bring issues like this to light; usually, things have to get to “class action lawsuit” status to draw a headline, and in light of political and economic issues, I feel that issues of health and advocacy/watchdogs in journalism are going largely unseen, or under-reported; gail, you understand my personal interest in these topics, so I say thanks for the info :) I too feel there has been a severe lack of coverage of “consumer health” in the news; seems most of the focus these days is fixing problems with pharmaceuticals, and suppressing the long-term effects of exposure, but alas, you know my agenda…so I digress.
In my household, we have removed all plastic storage containers from our cupboards, and use glass products. Same with re-heating in styrofoam (oh, no-no), and will now take an even closer look at packaging and consumables.
Thanks!
