I've been reading on the net about the mass marketed lunch bags containing lead. I never even give it a thought when I purchased the kids lunch bags. This website
http://www.cehca.org/lunchboxes.htm gives some specifics and a list of some of the ones containing lead. It also lists some eco friendly bags and their websites. In addition to those I also found this one www.egobags.com they also have reusable grocery bags and other things too. I am definitely going to switch out my kids lunch bags since they take their lunches just about everyday.

Blessings....

Thank you Sarah!

Does this drive anyone else to insanity? They make our infants get tested for lead if you live in an older house and how long has it been known that lead affects brain development ~ and so these manufacturers think it's ok to put lead in a LUNCH BAG? Gah! Why???? *banging head against wall*

Ok ~ Rant over :)
