I just read an article in Readers Digest (yes I still read Readers Digestš) that warns us to not use black plastic for any reason.
Not as takeout containers
Not in our kitchen utensils-
The composition of the black plastic is heavily made up of ādirtyā recycled materials that leeches carcinogens into our food š It went even farther in saying donāt recycle these materials, throw them away to stop them from being recycled into other household products including childrenās toys.
Solution? Wooden for our scratch-able cookware and stainless steel for everything else
Now we know!
