Time to move to glass instead of plastic pollution

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Got any hot tips on high quality affordable glass containers without plastic components? Standard gaskets, or ones which can be cut from silicone and replaced as needed are ok.

Ideally should survive small drops and boiling water.

There are expensive junk ones at my IGA but something like old Pyrex would be good.

I have been using beeswax wraps on borosilicate glass containers

Part of me wonders if silicones act like microplastics too

Those with silicone breasts are gonna have some trouble then....

No, but Its been studied alot more for a lot longer for being inside the body, so should be much safer.

The material sure but not micro pieces that are nondegradable

I prefer to not abuse animals but have been meaning to make a plant wax based cloth thing for a while. I should step it up.
