How can I avoid BPA?

Mother Nature Network: "Dear Vanessa,
I’m worried about exposing my family to bisphenol A, but it seems like it's in everything. I've heard that it's bad to use canned foods because BPA is in tin cans, but a friend also told me recently not to microwave any plastic food containers. Is that true, even for Tupperware? What about restaurant to-go boxes? Are plastic containers safe to use as long as I don't microwave them?

Be worried, be very worried.

• Don’t buy canned foods or beverages. Really.
