I have friends who accuse me of believing that natural is always better. I'm not so bold -- but I do see that older products and methods seem to have withstood the test of time, while newer ones often mask problems that come to light after 10 or 20 (or even more!) years. Rather than go 'round and 'round over what type of plastic is safest and best, why not fill up a stylish Sigg or a Kleen Kanteen bottle and get on with your day?
