My baby loves these organic baby foods. But Amazon is priced way to high. You can pick these up at Target for $1.44 for a 2 pack of 3.5 oz. Thats only $11.52 for 8 2 packs, Amazon wants more then double that.
BPA is not used in making the plastic cups for GERBER® pureed baby food products. It is important to note that even products with the number 7 plastic are not made with BPA, (the number 7 refers to recycling information, not the presence of BPA).
I saw on another site that the number 7 is a catch-all and doesn't necessarily contain BPA. In Gerber's case, the 7 refers to a mix of number 1 and number 2 plastics, so it can't be recycled.

With all the recent news regarding harmful chemicals leaching from plastic containers into food, I was shocked to see the recycle number 7 on the bottom of these plastic containers. Number 7 labeled plastic is the worst plastic you can possibly use. It is being recommended by health officials to avoid products packaged with these containers. This story was aired on Good Morning America. I had just purchased about 20 packages of this baby food for my daughter and immediately threw every one away. This makes me very concerned that Gerber is not fixing this problem.
