Do Toxic Chemicals Permeate Milk Cartons
I have noticed that certain small grocery stores in our area tend to have a very heavy cleaner/deodorant smell. We popped into one this evening for a quick carton of milk, and when I got in the car I realized that the carton had the odor of the store - and the odor even transferred to my hand after I carried it to the car. Is it possible that the chemicals permeated the milk carton and contaminated the milk, or are paper milk cartons sealed well enough to prevent that?
1950’s Fire King Milk Glass Dishware - Is it Lead Free?
I've always liked milkglass, and saw some on Etsy from the 1950's (I think, given the stamp and what google says about the date stamp).
From all what I can learn through google, there was arscenic in milk glass back in the 1800's, and then they stopped that and used lead for awhile instead to acheive the same milky look, up to the early 1900's.
