Many use therapeutic grade essential oils (EO) to enhance the flavor of foods and beverages. While some EOs make great flavoring agents, it is important to know that they can be highly aggressive  towards certain types of plastics many of which are frequently used in the very bottles and containers that we later intend to use for storage. Recently, we did an experiment to show just how corrosive essential oils can be if not paired with the right storage material. We will also show you great alternatives that can help you avoid the ingestion of harmful chemicals.
