Customer Reviews of Similac Alimentum Ready to Feed - 8 oz can - case of 24
Customer Review: METAL CANS contains BPA
Summary: 1 Stars
Please DO NOT BUY THE CANNED FORMULA. IT CONTAINS BPA! The BPA is in the inner coating of the metal cans. According to Similac/Abbott Laboratories, the larger RTF plastic container is BPA Free - just AVOID THE CANS!!!
I wanted to pass this information along to other moms/dads. I am not an activist or someone who believes my child will never come in contact with a dangerous toxin. But geez, as a society we go out of our way to make sure BPA is not in our baby bottles only to find out the my son is drinking the stuff!
If you are like me, I was desperate to find a formula that would not cause my child pain to digest (like my breast milk & other formulas). Sleep deprived and desperate to get out of the house, I thought the can RTF was a god send. (Especially b/c my child didn't like the powder.) I can't believe I have been using this product for 5 months. SHAME ON SIMILAC! Words cannot describe how truly angry I am.
Every other RTF they sell is in BPA free plastic. I feel like as parents of children with special dietary needs, we have been prayed on b/c we are desperate & could not use our power of the free market to purchase another BPA free brand. I am just disgusted. As a mom, I felt I needed to warn other parents of SIMILAC REPULSIVE AND UNNECESSARY PRACTICE.
I wanted to post Similac's website just so you don't think I am some nut. They conveniently don't list the metal can formula in their list of BPA free products. [...].
