Nalgene Better? Sigg Not So Sure?

Jeez, I take a week off to work on the farm and I don’t know which way is up! So, as we all know - now - Nalgene is not using BPA plastic anymore. Yay! However, the CEO of Sigg (the metal bottles) can’t confirm whether or not the lining to their bottles has BPA in it. Ugh!

So - what to do? Well, we’re making the varsity athletes take water to practice in rinsed out milk jugs and a couple of HDPE Nalgene’s we had hanging around.

Fortunately, we only drink out of glass around the house (the kids use those jelly glasses that are mostly resistant to falling on the floor)…so I was thinking about buying a couple of nice, thick glass bottles (like the ones they sell at the Co-op for taking the bulk vinegar home) and knitting a nice thick padded carrying bag for it.

Frankly, I’m just getting tired of the whole thing…but if I make a cool bag for the bottle, I’ll post it here and let you see how it looks! If anyone has a pattern or suggestions for such a bag - please let me know!
