Best matchConcernBPA and Plastic Substitutes: What the Regulation Actually CoversBPA is genuinely banned from baby bottles and sippy cups — but not for the reason most people assume, and the ban is narrower than the headlines suggest. Here's exactly what the FDA's regulation covers, and what's actually known about the chemicals used to replace it.Read the explainerProducts we recommend

Only categories- BPA and canned foodWhen BPA was in the news, the conversation was almost entirely about bottles and sippy cups. Meanwhile the larger dietary route was sitting in the pantry — and unlike baby products, general groceries were never covered by the rules that followed.Category hub
- Baby and kid gearBackpacks, footwear, carriers, rain gear — the durable goods. This is the hardest category on the site to research honestly, because manufacturers change suppliers between production runs and almost none of them are required to tell you what anything is made of.Category hub
- Feeding gearBottles, cups, pacifiers and teethers — the things a baby puts in their mouth for hours a day. The good news is that most of the materials question here answers itself once you know what each material is for.Category hub
- Toys and playPlay dough, play sand, teethers, the soft rubbery bits on everything. Toys are the category where children have the most direct, sustained, mouth-level contact with materials — and the one where labeling tells you the least.Category hub

Only brands- PackItPackIt makes the freezable lunch bag with the gel built into its walls, and it is specific about chemistry: its safety page says the products are made from "food-safe, nontoxic poly canvas and EVA" and are "free of harmful PVC, BPA, phthalates, formaldehyde and lead," and that they are tested by independent accredited laboratories against Proposition 65 and CPSIA limits. Those are the company's statements. It names no laboratory and publishes no report, and there is no certifier's register on which to check them, which is why the grade is acceptable rather than recommended. Two gaps are worth knowing before you buy: the product page says the lining is antimicrobial without naming the agent, and the company does not say what the freezable gel is made of. We found no recall in CPSC's database or openFDA, no California Proposition 65 notice and no product-safety or consumer-protection case in federal court under PackIt or PackIt, LLC as of 2026-10-12. It is majority-owned by Tenth Avenue Holdings, a holding company based in New York; whether the founder retains a stake is not stated. Brand
- Wild PlanetWild Planet is on our BPA pages for its written can-lining position, which we re-read on 2026-10-25 and which still says what our pages quote: "All of Wild Planet's current products are packed in cans that do not have the intentional addition of BPA in the can lining formulation." That is the company's own statement, not a certification. Its December 2019 statement on BPA explains why it does not say "BPA-free": it says third-party tests of its newly formulated cans found trace amounts of BPA, and that it later dropped even "No BPA used in can lining" from its labels to avoid giving customers a false assurance. The same is true of its mercury figures, which are averages from the company's own annual testing: 0.067 ppm for skipjack against an FDA action limit of 1.0 ppm. The Non-GMO Project's product register lists 37 Wild Planet products, including products named like all three we pick (checked 2026-10-25); Non-GMO Project Verified covers GMO avoidance only, not what is in the can, so it does not raise our grade. We found no certification that does (the company says it "has elected to not use the Marine Stewardship Council"), which is why the grade is acceptable and not higher: the safety claims here are the company's own. We found no FDA enforcement record under any Wild Planet or Bolton name in openFDA (data through 2026-10-14). One older USDA matter exists: in October 2016 a co-packer recalled canned Wild Planet Organic Roasted Chicken Breast over possible foreign matter; it closed in 2017 and is a product we do not list. What a reader should know sits on the legal side, and most of it concerns sardines rather than the skipjack tuna and sockeye salmon we list. California's Proposition 65 register holds thirty-one notices since 2020 naming Wild Planet or its Sustainable Seas label: twenty-four concern sardines, five concern tuna products and two concern anchovies (one of them amends the other). A Proposition 65 notice alleges a missing warning label, not that the fish was found unsafe. Two of the sardine matters became California court cases, with no outcome recorded. Separately, a federal class action filed in August 2026 alleges undisclosed arsenic in one Wild Planet sardine product, a second federal case filed in September 2026 is open and unread, and an older pair of class actions alleging underfilled 5-ounce tuna cans settled in 2017 for a reported $1.7 million with no admission of liability. Each is an allegation no court has ruled on, or a fill-weight claim, not a safety finding. Brand
Concerns & ingredients (4)
Only concerns & ingredients- Lead & Heavy Metals: What's Regulated, and Where Exposure Still Comes FromLead isn't a contested question the way some items on this list are — CDC states plainly that no safe blood-lead level has been identified in children. What's less settled in most households is where it still gets in, and what's actually banned versus just monitored. Here's both, route by route.Concern
- Safe Food Storage Options: Glass, Steel, Silicone, and What Actually MattersGlass, stainless steel, and silicone all sidestep the question plastic raises — but the honest starting point is what's actually driving that question. Here's what's established about material safety, what the newer microplastics research does and doesn't show, and where each non-plastic option fits.Concern
- Safer products: start hereA directory of where to begin, by room and by question. This page has been SafeMama's index for years; it now points into the five departments rather than listing every article we have ever published.Concern
- What is TPR, and is it safe?A reader asked about the soft, rubbery, non-skid parts on baby toys, teethers and bowls — the bits that look like PVC but are labeled PVC-free. Here is what that material usually is, and why it is generally a safer choice.Concern
Cheat sheets (6)
Only cheat sheets- Cheat Sheet: BPA-free canned foodReaders keep asking for a list of canned foods that contain BPA. Until the mid-2010s that list was almost every can on the shelf, which is why this one runs the other way: the brands that moved off BPA linings early, when the rest of the industry followed, and where BPA is still likely to be.Cheat sheet
- Safer backpacks cheat sheetBackpack makers change how they source and produce constantly, which makes this one genuinely hard to pin down. The thing to avoid is PVC — and the harder problem is that finding out whether a bag contains it usually means asking, and then deciding whether you believe the answer.Cheat sheet
- Safer bug repellent cheat sheetHow to keep mosquitoes and other biting insects off your family without reaching straight for DEET — including the plant-derived active that is genuinely proven, which is the part most natural-repellent lists get wrong.Cheat sheet
- Safer lunch gear cheat sheetLunch gear is one of the few things a child uses every single school day for years, and it holds their food. Three shelves here — the box or bag itself, the containers that go inside it, and what replaces a plastic sandwich bag — with what each brand actually says about lead, quoted rather than summarized.Cheat sheet
- The non-toxic sunscreen cheat sheetThe at-a-glance version: what makes a sunscreen safer, the seven ingredients we skip and why, what the words on the bottle legally mean, and our mineral picks by format. Bookmark it for the season.Cheat sheet
- The toys and art supplies cheat sheetThe at-a-glance version for the toy bin and the art cart: what to look for on play dough, crayons, bath toys and baby toys, what the standards on the box do and do not mean, and our picks by cut. It points to the full pages rather than repeating them.Cheat sheet
Lists (8)
Only lists- BPA-Free Canned Beans: Brands, Linings and What We'd BuyIn the 2016 Buyer Beware survey, 27 of 38 bean cans (71%) had a BPA epoxy lining. In the can makers' own 2020 survey, we counted no BPA epoxy in any bean can. The change is real, but what replaced BPA is mostly not named, and only a few bean makers say anything about their cans on their own sites.Guide
- BPA-Free Canned Coconut Milk? What Each Brand Says About Its CanIn 2016, 9 of the 10 coconut milk and cream cans one survey tested had a BPA epoxy lining on the body; in 2020, the can makers' own survey found BPA epoxy on one end of one of 13 coconut cans. Neither tells you about the can on your shelf today. This page sets out what each maker says about its lining, what the two surveys found, and which cans have the most to go on.Guide
- BPA-Free Canned Salmon and TunaSafe Catch and Wild Planet have moved off BPA can linings and say so in writing. Neither of them claims the word most shoppers are looking for — and the gap between what they actually say and what the label implies is the useful part.Guide
- BPA-Free Canned Tomatoes? What Each Brand Says About Its LiningTomatoes are acidic, which rules out some can linings, and the 2016 Buyer Beware report says tomatoes react with oleoresin. Even so, tomato cans in that 2016 sample were less likely than the average can to have a BPA epoxy lining (44% against 67%), and a 2020 industry survey found none. So the question now is what replaced BPA, and whether you want a can lining at all.Guide
- BPA-free pacifiers and teethers cheat sheetBPA is now out of bottles, sippy cups and formula packaging. Pacifiers and teethers were never part of that, which is why parents still ask what the soft parts are made of — and why this list still exists.Guide
- BPA-Free Sardines: What Each Brand Says About Its CansAlmost no sardine brand writes "BPA-free" about its own cans. The ones that put anything in writing mostly say "no intentional addition", and more than half of the brands we checked say nothing at all. Here is the exact wording, brand by brand, and what we would buy.Guide
- Cheat Sheet: BPA-Free Baby Food Storage ContainersThe easiest way to sidestep the BPA-in-plastic question for homemade baby food isn't a better plastic — it's not using plastic. Glass storage jars settle the question by material rather than by label, and they're inexpensive enough that there's no real tradeoff for choosing them.Guide
- Safer BPA-free dishware: why stainless steel skips the question entirelyPlastic and melamine kids' dishware carry the BPA question by default, and heat is the part that makes it worse, not better. Stainless steel skips the question — there is no resin lining to test, no migration curve to worry about.Guide
