Nancy why is that (”don’t re-use if number is less than 5”) the rule to go buy? Most plastics don’t use BPA, for example HDPE (plastic number 2) does not use BPA. I’m not saying you should re-use it, I’m asking why you shouldn’t because I re-use HDPE (milk) and PETE (alcohol) plastic bottles and haven’t had anything bad happen.

about time too, I heard about this research a while ago I’m glad it’s finally public knowledge. It isn’t safe to re-use most plastic bottles you have to very careful. every plastic container has a number in a circle on it if it’s any lower than 5 don’t re-use it is the rule to go by.

What we like to do with our water bottles is freeze a portion of water in the bottom of the bottle and then fill with filtered water; hey presto, bottled ice water! If the Nalgene can stand up to that, I’m ready to buy.

welll… a very good move by the company owing to the increased concerns over the plastic bottles…I am sure other manugacturers will follow their steps and also use alternative to BPA…
