Should choose inorganic, hard, white plastic box

We should use inorganic plastic food containers because they are less toxic than organic plastics. To distinguish these 2 plastics, you can look under the sun, organic plastic will still see the sun and inorganic plastic will not let sunlight pass.

Besides, we also need to pay attention to the hardness and color of food plastic products. White and hard plastic boxes often have higher safety. The reason is that the plastic is flexible and the color is colorful and easy to be deformed or stop being contaminated with chemicals and colorants at high temperature. Therefore, it can cause poisoning for us, making a significant impact on health, and causing dangerous diseases too!

When we use a plastic box to store hot food, especially at a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius, the amount of monostyren (a poison) in the plastic will release and seep into the food. This causes serious damage to the liver and causes many serious health problems.

In particular, you absolutely should not use plastic to store food when put into the microwave. High temperatures in the oven can cause toxic substances from plastic to be released and absorbed into food, causing serious harm.
