This is so informative, thank you. I always got my kids baby food in glass, thinking it would reduce their microplastics exposure as well as reducing plastic waste. Turns out only one of those was true :(





It may still be true. Handling plastic over time (e.g. lots of squeezing and dropping) could plausibly cause an increase of plastic leakage over time.

You might try getting a cloth diaper service as well. All those plastics, plasticizers, and VOCs can leach into skin.
