I’ve become increasingly weary about any heated foods in contact with plastic.
Near boiling hot soup from Chinese take-out poured into shitty plastic containers. Hard pass.
Also going to someone’s house and seeing they use those crock-pot plastic liner bags: 🤢
I also feel really bad about all the plastic dishes we have for our kids (we don’t microwave them). We’re actually going spend the coin on some stainless steel right now, thanks Lemmy!
Do yourself a favor and get some ceramic stuff as well to replace your nonstick. Works just as well, lasts longer and is easier to maintain. You won't have to worry about microplastics with it either
Omg u unlocked a core memory from me where my soup tasted bad and I noticed a lot of warping on the container and threw it out 🤢
