Plastic Cooking Utensils
The dollar store has always been a go-to destination whenever planning a barbecue or summer block part. But take a breath before you head straight to the aisle with all the plastic cooking utensils.
Plastic cooking utensils from a dollar store, like plastic slotted spoons, spatulas, and the like, might contain bromine, a component in brominated flame retardants, also known as BFRs, which have been linked to obesity, cancer, and diabetes, according to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
You should think about saving your hard-earned dollars and buying higher-quality stainless steel cooking utensils instead. The environment will also thank you!
I love Dollar Tree Stores but they need to change the name because nothing is a dollar in there anymore. Their prices start at $1.25 and go up. You really need to watch which isle you are on and watch the products because people are always putting the wrong products on the wrong isle and when you get up to the register you find out the real price of some items.
You are so right about the plastic cooking utensils; they are marked Betty Crocker but they will melt if they get to hot and who know what the right temperature is for them. I learned the hard way about them melting and no need taking it back to the store, cause who keeps receipts from there and I bought these items when everything was a dollar.
Anyways I still like going in there and prawling around!
I can’t but go and visit dollars store to buy things so I love to buy my need there.⁹
I read all of your picks on what not to buy and your so,so right. I know from experience. Thats what these stores have on their shelves and most people know that. However, its still a fun store to go through regardless. There is always a cheap thing to buy that you can’t do without. lol
