Use some common sense and hope for the best.<br /> We have finally gotten rid of all of our plastic tupperware and have replaced it with GLASS from Pyrex brand. No more plastic containers to heat up anything in the microwave.<br /> There was a recent report here in the US that said, Cancer doctors could point out what brand of bottled water their patients used to drink...by the chemicals they would find on these folks blood stream!!! Now, that was a wake up call.<br /> The biggest thing with drinking water in the US right now is avoiding plastic bottles and using the aluminum bottles to avoid the chemicals released in the water by plastic bottled waters. :(American Heart Brazilian Soulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049937328816904295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5660712955365418154.post-63862883151667486152011-02-23T10:48:44.513-05:002011-02-23T10:48:44.513-05:00Dear Jana,

I am writting a post today about where to find hard solid wood furniture around Sao Paulo.<br /> <br />RayAmerican Heart Brazilian Soulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049937328816904295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5660712955365418154.post-20686481465741335492011-02-23T08:28:54.472-05:002011-02-23T08:28:54.472-05:00Good Post!

Apparently though when heat is applied to the new method the chemical reaction that occurs turn the product into formaldehyde. The scientist involved in the research said to be skeptical of anything claiming to straighten hair that claims to not have formaldehyde. So much for products claiming to be safe!!<br /><br />SaraSNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17460572927503679630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5660712955365418154.post-85851546760359765272011-02-23T06:51:52.394-05:002011-02-23T06:51:52.394-05:00How disturbing, I really didn't want to know w...How disturbing, I really didn't want to know what went into that crappy wanna be wood that is everywhere now. I bought what I thought was a nice piece of furniture from Crate and Barrel a few years ago and on its first move it fell in the elevator exposing it as cheap crappy chip board and I was so upset. I guess good riddance... I will never spend money on anything other than glasses or dishes there and now that is one less piece of formaldehyde crap I have to breath in. What a shame, its so hard to find good solid wood pieces without spending a fortune...Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16257177126103532551noreply@blogger.com
