Lids on glass products often contain BPA lining.

on Banning BPA
Above I meant the only Eden Foods lined with BPA are tomatoes(I understand that isn't true for all food companies). I also think a ban on bottles/cups/etc is a start, but to not ban on foods that kids frequently eat would also be a step in the right direction to lower childhood exposure.

What number is Dasani Water packaged in? Is it 1 or 2? Those plastics don't contain BPA. BPA is often in some #7s (and some 3s). It's my understanding that in addition to liners, BPA is added to harden plastics. Nalgene is made of a very hard plastic (although the newer bottles are BPA free), and it used to incorporate BPA to make the bottles very durable. I'll be interested to hear the response to your question.

I agree. I really wish labelling was more of a priority for the states and for the FDA. We have the right to know what we buy!

Has Eden Foods explored the use of Tetra Paks for their tomato products? I understand that those products are the only canned products lined with BPA. Is that understanding correct?
