HORRORS LURKING IN THE LUNCHBOX!

Make sure to look for a super-safe kid’s lunch box, as there may be more horros lucking than you thought off. We love the lunch boxes from Citizen Pip (pictured). They are BPA and Lead-free and come with a variety of safe reusable containers, flatware, even thermos flasks, and their designs are adorable. BPA and Lead aside, you also need to check out that your prospective buy doesn’t contain Microban, which is a trade name for a dangerous pesticide called Triclosan. Triclosan is ostensibly antimicrobial, however, it’s never proven to reduce illness in any way, shape or form. If you’re worried about bacteria, much better to spritz your lunch box with the Gorgeously Green All Purpose Spray at the end of everyday. Triclosan is a known hormone disruptor that has been banned in Canada. Microban can also come under the trade names of: Irgasan, Biofresh, Lexol-300, and Ster-zac – so read your labels! It can also be found in other school supplies too.  What about anti-bacterial wipes? They too can contain Triclosan – so look for non-toxic hand sanitizers such as the Method Hand Sanitizer. I love this one, as it comes in a large bottle. Save money by decanting it into a small travel bottle to put in your kid’s lunch box.
