Important for everyone to know

I just read something the other day that the chemical BPA that is found in plastics is also on retail/grocery store receipts. I know that's something we are pretty much all exposed to, so I thought I would share. The info I read recommended hand washing after handling receipts and not putting them in bags with food products.

Good to know. I *used* to let him play with it until we got to the car. 

Im not like, "oh god BPA!" but I do try to avoid it when I know of a way.

Thanks for the share

(PS Your Jacky has beautiful eyes!)

Yeah, I feel the same way. Happy to help! And thank you!  

I remember you from a while back since you have a Jack, too! I love seeing his pictures as he gets older! He is adorable!

So does the bubble that your kids are living in.

By no means does my kid live in a bubble. I just thought this was something we are all exposed to frequently, and if it's easily avoidable, then why not try to avoid it? Just trying to be helpful. No need to be a b!tch.

There is BPA in a lot more than receipt paper, you'd be surprised.

Yup.  It is in the formula cans as well as the plastic gerber baby food containers AND in all canned items.

That wasn't me being a biitch. I'm far worse than that.

Not something I would brag about. Was there a point to your snotty post?

Actually the gerber baby food in plastic has BPA free containers, however the gerber jars have BPA in the lining of the metal lids.
