As always, pick your food battles...but this is an interesting article to say the least.

    Good article. My Mother hates plastic, and is always telling me Not to use it!
    Now I understand why!!

    The estrogen-related part is particularly interesting to me because, due to chemotherapy in my youth, I have to do hormone replacement therapy - essentially taking estrogen every day (I take Ortho-Tricyclin Lo) since my body doesn't produce the proper amount.

    I wonder what I am supposed to do, then, if it us supposedly bad for me? I'm pretty sure my doctor doesn't want me ever going off it!

    I read that earlier today and I agree with it! But, I also think we could drive ourselves crazy over analyzing everything we eat, where it came from, what kind of packaging it's in, etc. So, I just try to do the things that I feel are most important and make changes/adjustments as I go. I try not to use a lot of plastic anyway, but I will now be more careful about microwaving it or putting it in the dishwasher. I also try to eat organic on the things that are highest in pesticides and that I eat all of like celery, berries, etc.
