Plastic bottles bad? What about the large 5 gallon bottles?!


Question: Plastic bottles bad!? What about the large 5 gallon bottles!?
I moved into a new apartment a few months ago, thinking about having water delivered!. Are those large water bottles safe!? I've been reading that plastic can leech into water if left out in the sun!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
They are probably safe!.
Have you thought of a water filter on your sink!? I understand that they are less than the delivered water, save bottles and are real convenient!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Whwt you've probably read is the hoax email that was widely circulated last year, and is apparently now circulating again, which claimed that toxins from warm plastic bottles can leak into the water they contain and cause cancer, specifically breast cancer!.

It's rubbish; these links will give you the facts:
