"Thanks so much Green Woman! You make a very valid point about keeping track of the jars used for freezing and those used for canning. Thanks for the tip! ~Alicia"

"Great question Eve! Yogurt containers are typically made from polypropylene plastic (recycling code #5) which is a good, safe option for food storage and even for reuse. You could try it in the freezer, but it may crack because it's not specifically made to be freezer safe. ~Alicia"

"I'm glad to hear that Tupperware freezer mates are BPA-free, dream83004! Tupperware definitely used BPA in a good number of their containers though. We did our own research to confirm a couple of years ago and you can read about that here: http://guide.thesoftlanding.co... ~Alicia"

"We wouldn't recommend giving it to children under 2, and it's probably better to use the recipe without the cayenne for younger kids. It also depends on how palatable it is for your specific child. We use it with our children who are over 2 years old, but we do it carefully and just a little at a time. We also use a variant of the ingredients when needed. Maybe a little garlic oil instead of minced garlic, and a little extra honey always helps."

"Thanks for the suggestion. We noticed they use some kind of lining inside their bottles, so we'll have to investigate further to determine the product's safety."

"It really works well, doesn't it? And you're right, ingredient research is definitely the way to go to answer your questions about the syrup and breastfeeding. We'd love to know what you discover!"
