Glass Food Steamers
A question came to me this week regarding a glass steamer I had suggested back in 2013. At the time it was the only glass steamer I could find and it was only available in Canada. More recently, I could only find one glass option that didn’t have an other materials of concern.
Sorbitan Monostearate in Baking Yeast
Recently I discovered that the baking yeast I purchase (and most of them that I looked at) have Sorbitan Monostearate added. I am a very frequent baker/breadmaker (almost every day) and wonder if I need to be concerned about this ingredient. I did a bit of online research and saw the MSDS but wasn't sure what to take from it. Some sites say it's safe, others say it's toxic (in large quantities, I assume).
Food-Grade EVA Wrap in Mats
Just wondering if you have any opinions about "food grade EVA" found in the wrap-in-mats. I bought one for my son for his lunch bag and am now wondering about the inner lining of EVA touching his food. I'm considering purchasing another (for snacks) but am a bit put off by the lining. I'd love to know what you think about it and if you think it is "safe" to use.
