Geez, there are so many other food dangers in this world to be concerned with. It's just a cover-- I'm not gonna eat the darned thing. Great Idea!

If it does not have a number, do not use. Here is an internet site that can help explain about nasty plastic leaching. http://www.checnet.org/healtheHouse ... ion/quicklist-detail.asp?Main_ID=353 Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers Post by teatimelady (19) | (10/17/2007) Contact I think this is one of the "best" ideas ever and it so makes sense. Thanks for sharing. Also, when we went and stayed in motels when on vacation, there was always a couple shower caps in the bathroom in a sealed package. Makes me glad I took them home with me. :) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers Post by Maryeileen (411) | (10/17/2007) Profile | Contact Personally, I would not use any non-food grade plastic with food. That's probably why they're so cheap.

I just found that my favorite dollar store sells eight shower caps for--yes--one dollar! They fit the top of the largest container, and they are also the ideal covering for a cut watermelon. Both sturdy and washable, they also come in a variety of designer pastel colors (-: I don't know how much those other covers cost, but I'll bet you can't get eight for a dollar. Sharon Feedback: RE: Shower-Cap Food Covers Show-caps are NOT made of food appropriate plastic and should NOT be used on food products. The FDA allows only certain materials to be used in and around food. There could be a film on the caps or it may release odors that would contaminate any food in contact with the shower cap.

Sharon (08/11/2004) By ricnsharon RE: Shower-Cap Food Covers I have used them for years and years. Just wash them good in hot soapy water first . Nearly everything we touch in this world can be bad for us if we don't use good sense!! (09/07/2004) By lorac456 Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers o need to buy those expensive plastic food covers, Most dollar stores sell disposable shower caps. You can get like a dozen of them for a buck. These are SO very handy. HUGE savings. By Kimberly Birdsall (06/27/2005) By ThriftyFun RE: Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers Cool - I'm going to use them for my self-cleaning litterbox. The brand-name bags cost a lot - and these will work just fine! (12/09/2005) By cheap chick RE: Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers I have been looking for those shower cap-like plastic covers for years now. I remember them from when I was a kid. The disposable ones that are sold in the grocery stores are way too expensive and one throws them away. The ones my mother had were reusable. Does anyone know where I can buy them? Thanks. (01/02/2006) By Elizabeth RE: Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers Thank you, thank you! I bought the plastic covers at Walmart for a time then suddenly they were gone, (discontinued I guess, No one seems to know) I don't remember who made them. I cannot find them in the grocery stores. Your solution is a good one. (05/03/2006) By JoAnne Wray RE: Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers They also make good covers for Leather Bicycle saddles! Sure beats the $10-20.00 price tag for a cover made flor the purpose and works as well! At 8 for a $, I can buy a whole lot of them!

I went to Australia & found some made by BAYSIKS (9 for $2) & I brought home 6 packs & am ready to find more. (10/16/2007) By Toni from Chicago. Report Spam or Abuse
