[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 650500, member: 11791"] Don't know about the US. I believe that in Canada, these are most often gelatin-based. Water bottles are a big culprit. Do NOT re-use disposable water bottles, as they are only intended for one-time use - and have an expiry date because of the impact of plastic on water quality. Re-usable water bottles may be no better, depending on what they are made of. Some plastics still contain BPA, especially older water bottles. But aluminum isn't much better, according to some studies. Glass is safe as far as water quality... but it tends to break, which isn't safe. Newer plastics are supposed to be safer (i.e. BPA-free) but who knows what else will turn up? [/QUOTE]
