  • Avoid black plastic food containers – They often contain flame retardants from recycled electronics that leach into food.
  • Never put hot food in black plastic – Heat dramatically increases chemical leaching from these containers.

Bottom Line

Immediately stop using black plastic containers for food storage, especially with hot foods. Switch to glass or safer plastic alternatives.
