You can say that again about xenoestrogens! They are implicated in breast disease including cancer, and prostate cancer. We're surrounded by these plastics too. One researcher (sorry, can't remember the name, but at a large university) said she won't keep any foodstuffs in plastic (certain types, I guess?) unless it's refrigerated. These xenoestrogens leach out at room temperatures or warmer apparently.

phthalic acids are xenoestrogens not good for your endocrine system... they leach!
HDPE would be more appropriate for storing ingestables.
