If anyone has any links to this outfit that sells lead tests, post it!

On FR in the last few weeks I’ve read two people saying that their dishes (ceramic ware made in China) tested positive for lead. Notice how all ceramic ware now says “made in China” on the bottom?

We are now eating out of stainless steel bowls and drinking out of mason jars until we test our dishes for lead.

I use stainless and glass everywhere I can. I cringe when I see people microwaving stuff in plastic, sytrofoam or *microwavable* containers. I can’t help but wonder what chemical reactions are occurring when those microwaves hit the plastic or the plastic becomes hot from the food.

Good grief. I had no idea. No more chinaware in our kitchen. Thanks for the heads up.

Haven’t used them, but it looks like the same test.

No!! They're probably made in China!!

Seriously, though someone will jump in and tell you another industry has sprung up thanks to the wonders of 'free trade' (translation= unregulated, lopsided fast track, MFN status, corrupt trade deals written by industry hacks and bypassing congress.)

We keep grasping for symptom relief instead of curing the cause of the disease.
