Question from KatherineM

I was looking into these really cute reusable sandwich/snack bags (www.lunchskins.com) and their site says the inside is coated with “food-safe polyurethane liner.” Do you think this is really safe/non-toxic? Thank you!

Debra’s Answer

See Q&A: Toxicity of Polyurethane.

I don’t think the toxicity of the polyurethane liner would be any more or less toxic than a food grade polyethylene sandwich bag. I don’t know if this wraps are more or less reusable than a sandwich bag, but they are cuter.
