This may have had something to do with it.
Nalgene bottles are advertised as BPA-free.
Nalgene only started to transition to BPA free plastic in 2008. They sold so many in the 90s and 2000s. Any “old” Nalgene should just be disposed.
But what if I want to become a walking Superfund site?
You already are. Blood full of PFAs, bones full of lead, lungs full of flame retardants and a gut full of microplastics, not to mention all the agrochemical exposure and their effects on the endocrine system.
It could be worse tho
True! I could be a radium girl and have my bones disintegrate while I'm still alive.
Good idea I gotta get some radium too
Most drinking bottles from then had bpa. The ban didn’t come until 2012 for all baby products.
