Should I avoid Gerber’s pureed baby food products in #7 plastic containers?
No. BPA is not used in making the plastic cups for Gerber pureed baby food products—even those whose labels indicate that they are made with number 7 plastic. The arrow symbol #7, found on Gerber food containers, indicates that the container is made of more than one kind of non-polycarbonate plastic, and not polycarbonate plastic associated with BPA. This number indicates recycling information, not BPA presence.
