Take Out Containers Are Toxic
And you thought the take-out food was the thing that was going to kill you. Turns out the plastic in the container will leach into your food, mess with your hormones, and possibly give you cancer. See this post from the Educational Cyber Playground (and scroll to their discussion of #6 PS). It was based on this study published in Environmental Health Studies and conducted by people in white coats.
The good news is that the nasty chemicals only leach into your food and drinks if they are heated. So, as long as you get all your food and drink chilled, you won't have a problem.
