I have been doing some research on what is considered food safe containers. I had an inspector question our containers that we are using to store our spices in. From the research I have done I think what I am using is ok. Here is what I found.......
- The best type of plastic for use in long-term food storage is high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which is indicated by the "2" symbol. ...
- Other types of plastic acceptable for food storageinclude PETE, LDPE, and polypropylene (PP).
So, if my container has the PP and 5 on the bottom it should be safe right?
