👇 5 easy swaps to cut down your microplastic intake on your next trip

Comment KITCHEN and I’ll send you a list of all the links ✨

👀My awareness of microplastics began when I was diagnosed with a degenerative, incurable neurological autoimmune disease, and how bad they are for us !💕

Don’t get me wrong, I love glass containers too, but they’re not the best for camping… I’ve had bad experiences 😅 I’ve swapped to stainless steel food containers lately and they’re great!

Microplastic is everywhere and our camping kit is the worse..

1️⃣ Pots: Ditch nonstick cookware. Cheap pans with plastic-lined interiors shed particles, especially with metal utensils and high heat. Go stainless steel, titanium instead or cast iron

2️⃣ Cutting board: Plastic boards shed thousands of particles every time you cut on them. Swap for wood (full piece with no glue)

3️⃣ Cups: Heat massively increases plastic shedding. Never pour boiling liquid into plastic… stainless steel or enamel only

4️⃣ Utensils: Cheap plastic sporks scratch and shed with every scrape against a hot pan. One set of titanium or stainless lasts forever and never breaks down into your food

5️⃣ Food containers: Pack hot food in glass or metal, not soft plastic bags baking in the sun all day

None of these swaps are expensive or complicated, just a few small changes that add up over every trip :)
