You have to look hard to actually find something labeled as a plastic #7. When it comes to resin identification codes, #7 is reserved for materials made from mixed plastics – or “other.” That’s why it is so rare to see a #7 in the wild – plastics of these types cannot be recycled, so […]

I have pushed my buggy past gDiapers at Whole Foods many times. I have read their starter kit package at least twice.
