If you read my last post, you might be curious about the specific products I use at home. Here is a list

  1. DO NOT EAT CANNED FOODS

Companies i purchase that use glass containers:

  • Jovial ( corn, chickpeas and beans)

  • Erewhon Soups

  • Bionaturae Organic, organico bello, Tomato products

  • Primal Kitchen ketchup , teriyaki and more

2. AVOID PLASTIC FOOD CONTAINERS

  • Wean Green Kitchen set ( love the smaller sizes of these for baby good) https://amzn.to/3XHo3Yd

  • Pyrex 22 pc food container set https://amzn.to/3CPdb3i

  • URBAN Green glass Containers with glass Lids. https://amzn.to/41e781M

3. NO PLASTIC PLATES OR CUPS

There is a misconception in many families that children can only handle plastic or melamine plates and cups. For young kids, and their friends when they come over, instead of plastic or melamine we use:

Stainless steel

  • Ahimsa utensils

  • Ahimsa ss cups

  • Elk & Friends ss divided plates

  • Wee sprout ss drinking cups with lid and silicone straw

Resistant glass

  • mason jars as glass cups

  • Life Factory glass with silicone cover

4. MINIMIZE DUST

  • Our vacuum ( its an investment- the important thing for a vacuum is to have great suction and a HEPA filter)
