I was blog hopping last night and came across an article alert about plastic containers from China suspected of containing lead. Not one to be paranoid, but I was concerned and I remembered an article I read from Gwendomama which I thought I should share. One of her readers also alerted her on the possibility of lead in the plastic bento boxes that she uses.
Read about how she went on to purchase a test kit and tested the Bento boxes under the Clickety Click line and some others, made in Japan and found that they were lead free! At least I know someone has done some tests and it helps to set some fears aside.

How's your spelling?

 Your spelling is excellent. You also have a great memory and eye for detail. |

 The good news is that most people love you more than anything else in the world. You are distinct, unusual, fresh, and very controversial. And you wouldn't have it any other way. |

hello! so glad you stopped in - my own discovery of bento is new, and was inspired by the desire to go as waste-free as possible in my daughter's lunches.
i did start another blog for her lunches on blogger - GwendoBento - but it is just a baby.
glad the lead testing had benefit to you - and if you ever need to test something, rest assured you can get your own kits quite easily on Ebay.
gwendomama: thanks for taking time to drop a comment! I'd been visiting your site for new bento updates but you didn't seem to have any on bentos. Now I know why - you've got another site! Thanks for informing me, I shall visit after this.
I think I shall check out e-bay for the test kits, thanks for the tip.
