Never thought about that. I guess it would work well.
Also, the "new ones" have been testing for high levels of LEAD... and apparently are made in china. So there is that.
I heard about that, but I didn't really look into it. I figured the lead was used in a way that didn't cause a risk of exposure. Kind of like how asbestos is safe as long as you don't disturb it.
The example I saw was a brand new cup swabbed with a lead test kit and showed dangerously high levels (without ever being used).
If it's a vacuum bottle, it uses a lead solder to seal it - like all commercial vacuum bottles have been since there have been commercial vacuum bottles sold to the public.
You don't drink off the outer shell, so there's no lead-to-contents contact.
Thanks.
I figured it was something like that. Of course people had to make clickbait fear mongering articles about it.
