in 2007-2008, everyone started talking about bpa in plastics, by 2009, bpa-free plastics were everywhere, so can, not cancer is getting bpa out of food cans and they chased a huge success this year when campbell's soup said we're going to take the bpa out, we're waiting for a timeline from them and waiting for them to replace bpa with something safer, taking that first step was huge, even more significant perhaps is the campaign for safe cosmetics which has been around for about 10 years saying that -- getting johnson & jn -- johnson saying we're going to get carcinogens first out of our baby products across the whole world and that's really significant because they found formaldehyde in baby's johnson shampoo a few years ago, they tested it a few yearser later and found that johnson & johnson has taken it out of their products in china and other countries but not in the united states, well, if you can do it in one country, why can't you do it in all of them, doesn't everybody deserve safer baby shampoo no matter where they live? that put a lot of pressure on them because the consumers s

. >> why -- when you were talking about the cans and the bpa exposures, why did you just address beans? i'm assuming you mean any food or liquid in all cans? >> yes, it's all of them and i didn't mean to just address beans, that's why the recommendation is frozen or fresh vegetables, for instance, frozen and fresh fruits, we did a bunch of product testing and looked at also past product testing to see where are the highest levels of bpa in canned foods and it looks like they end up the most in kind of very complex foods like soup or, you know, the pasta dishes that i grew up in that came out of cans, those kinds of things that are salty and maybe also acidic and maybe also really fatty seemed to like suck the stuff up, so the highest levels were in those followed by i believe vegetables, my memory's a little rusty, especially if you're trying to pour your whole meal out of a can, that may be especially problem mat -- problematic, getting your things out of the soy boxes, or, you know, making a whole bunch of soup out of some fresh ingredients, freezing it in little glass containers, it

a study suggesting bpa can contribute to obesity in young girls. >> bpa comes up all the time.ve covered this topic so many times in the past. it's in a lot of plastic containers there are plane studies that shows it can affect and associated with diabetes. now this particular study, it's a source of obesity in teenagers. they looked at about 1300 girls between the age of 12 to 19 and they're finding out the amount of pba in their urine sample correlates with their weight which is interesting. if you have twice the normal amount, twice the risk of obesity. ten times more, ten times risk of obesity. so i think this is a good time for fda to jump in and really look into this and really minimize the amount of bpa we use. certainly in our house, you know, my wife doesn't allow any of these containers unless it says bpa free on all the labels. that's the only way plastics will come to our house and what i recommend. >> one of the problems right now is that the plastic industry has become so massive and it's enormous, so i mean what do you do? you go back to using glass? drink your w
