How to keep plastic out your food

Given all of these unknowns, along with the catastrophic environmental impact of our addiction to plastic, here are some tips for lowering your plastic dependence and keeping it out of your food:

• Switch to glass or metal containers when possible.
• Avoid heat, including the microwave and dishwasher, especially when it comes to takeout containers and other forms of plastic not meant for reuse.
• Plastic doesn’t last forever (even if some of the chemicals it contains might) – avoid scratched and discolored plastic and pay attention to “expiration dates” on products such as SodaStream bottles.
• Don’t store fatty or oily foods in plastic – many chemicals used in plastic are fat soluble and are more likely to leach into fatty food.
• Cut down on plastic water bottles, which contribute to the widespread ingestion of microplastics.
• Consider replacing your plastic wrap with a reusable option, like beeswax wrap.
