Nothing Safe About "Microwave Safe"

Over at the Slog, the ECB has interrupted the usual stream-of-pop-cultural-consciousness with some actual health news: "According to a new analysis, plastic products marketed for infants or labeled "microwave safe" (including those stamped with "safe" plastic numbers 1, 2, and 5) leached out potentially toxic levels of a chemical called bisphenol-A (BPA) when heated in a microwave." The worst offender was Enfamil baby formula, which is like a kick in the gut, as BPA is an endocrine disruptor and especially unsafe for kids. So you can go ahead and throw that shit out. And by "that shit," we mean of course the FDA.
