So Canada, Nalgene, Toys-R-Us and even WalMart are looking to remove the chemical bisphenol (plastic labled #7) from their products. Wal-Mart, Canada, Nalgene Move Against Bisphenol A in Plastic Baby Bottles - Polycarbonate Plastics Safety - thedailygreen.com Meanwhile, the FDA, along with the chemical industary, sees no risk with the product. Planet Ark : US FDA Defends Safety Of Baby Bottle Chemical Which leaves me with the question, At what point does the FDA start protecting us?

Honestly, I've been convinced for sometime now that the FDA is useless. But that is my opinion!

Mine too. I keep reading different books about how harmful cleaning products are, and of course the FDA says they are "safe".
