NOT BPA FREE. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT! HAS PLASTIC RESIN ID CODE 7
Received my bottle today and it wasn't BPA free. Bottle has a strong low quality plastic smell. Got different flavors out of bottle. The bottle contains a code 7 which is considered the “catch all” category that all other plastic resins are grouped under. This explains why this listing doesn't have a bottom view of the bottle. Sellers are purposely advertising BPA Free when is clearly not. Here is what I found: How to tell if Plastic is BPA Free If you are looking at a plastic bottle or jar at home, and wondering whether that bottle or jar is generally considered as BPA free, here is how to do it: Turn the bottle or jar upside down, and look at the bottom to see if it contains a plastic resin identification code (commonly referred to as recycling code). The symbol has a numeric number (from 1 – 7) encased by three chasing arrows shaped like a triangle. If you see 1, 2, 4, 5, or 6, you can comfortably assume the bottle or jar is BPA free If it is 3, or PVC, it likely contains BPA. PVC is no longer used in most food and beverage containers, and its use as metal can food lining material is also decreasing If you see 7, you won’t be able to determine whether it has BPA or not, as 7 is considered the “catch all” category that all other plastic resins are grouped under. If you know the plastic bottle is made of PVC materials, it will have BPA.
