14-Piece Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers Expired

Melt?!

Christ the amount of disinformation on this site is astounding. From someone that works "in the field" specifically in the medical area (all those nasty plastics that probably save millions of lives daily, heck I only have a doctorate in the field what do I know), the resin that is used in these types of containers is a copolyester, specifically a resin called Tritan [eastman.com]by Eastman. There are no BPA or BPA analogs used in the production of copolyester, unlike PC. (this is a coPET, where some physical-property-modifying component has been added to the polymer chains of PET to make it more resilient; FWIW PET is what your water and soda bottles are made from) Therefore there cannot be any more BPA/BPS "left" in the resin (container) to do any leeching.

The gasket is made of SPC and ironically is in the same class of resins that is used by a few of my customers in things such as blood bag liners and IV's.

$2 bucks more but better set

this is definitely a much better set. It seems to be the same set plus 2 of the 4.7 cups.

I use the 3.2 cups the most, then the 4.7 cups second most.

I got in on a walmart deal for the same 18 piece set April 2020 for $19.26. So not sure if I should get more at $24.26 or see if it drops down.

The super small ones 0.5 cup are not that useful, but i use it a handful of time to store extra sauce.

The 1.3 cups are pretty useful to hold nuts or other small amounts of food.

My environmental health friends have told me that there no such thing as microwave safe plastic.

If you haven't realized yet that your environmental health friends are insane or just very very misguided and looking for cause to fill up the emptiness inside I don't know what more to say. I suspect they are all secretly disgusted that they are beastly humans with the fifth and nastiness that brings along and are looking to separate themselves out as some type of pure beings. You have to notice all the talk about how they do things better than you along with talk of purity, purges and flushing out of impurities and such. It mirrors many of the very early primitive religions.

They worry about trace amounts of danger that are effectively zero while eating and living a lifestyle that is full of much larger dangers. The fresh and organic veggies they eat all have the same toxins that that they will have product pulled for. They haven't realized that the sun, the earth and even the universe itself is at battle with humans and wants to kill us.

Life expectancy has increased dramatically with our ability to live somewhat unnaturally out of that cycle. Your environmental friends want you to go back and live a lifestyle that takes you back to an average age of death of 40. Our long lifespans has taken some hits recently and it is this silliness with all natural products that is setting it back. People die with great regularity that follow some new and faddish health advice. You can go on the web and buy things that will literally kill you but are advertised and sold as healthy. Eight babies dead from sucking a on an all natural teething ring that contained lead did nothing to stop the billion dollar industry selling more snake oil. Their lobbying and payoffs to Congressmen has kept and and all regulation at bay. The babies are just a small portion of the hundreds of thousands dead form this insanity.

Don't take their advice it can cost you your life.

That all explains why they are all pasty and gaunt while lecturing you about health. They do things because Gwyneth Paltrow tells them to and are not people to be trusted. The irony is that I know hardcore alcoholics and junkies that have more wellness than you typical environmental health follower. Sailors used to be able to perform duties in hard environments on a diet of salt pork, environmental health people fall over in a faint if they eat out of plastic or get a too much salt or MSG. They are constantly in a tizzy and in a state of fear and worry. It is an illness that used to be called hysteria or hypochondria.

I've got a doctorate in epidemiology. Understanding risk is what i do for a living. No need to talk down to me. Is yours in creative writing? And my friends, well they are world experts in this topic so yes i trust them.
