Wal-Mart, Nalgene Pull BPA Bottles from Shelves
Wal-Mart said it would phase out BPA from all the baby bottles it sells, replacing them with different plastics or glass.
“Safety is a top priority for Wal-Mart,” the company said in a statement. “While the FDA has not established any restrictions on the use of bisphenol A (BPA) in baby bottles, for several years now we have offered a variety of BPA-free products for customers who seek this option.
We are working to expand our BPA-free offerings and expect the entire assortment of baby bottles to be BPA-free sometime early next year.”
