Should I be worried? On the way back from the park today, I gave my son an *old* sippy cup to drink out of (I poured fresh water into a new cup, but didn't realize that there was an old sippy cup in the stroller basket. I gave him the old one to drink from, and didn't realize the switch until we got home). It was just water, but I think it had been sitting there for about two weeks (and it has been hot out). Should I be worried about this? How worried? I took a sip myself to see -- it tasted like plasticy-water. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.43844 Mon, 07 Aug 2006 11:14:44 -0800 sippycup stagnantwater Badmichelle
