Animal Bestie Insulated Food Container
A steel food jar that keeps warm food off plastic, which matters most when food is hot. Stated BPA-free and lead-free. The lid uses silicone and the exterior grip coating is not disclosed, so it is low-plastic rather than plastic-free.
A double-wall vacuum-insulated kids' food jar. The body is pro-grade 18/8 stainless steel, an inert metal, and the retailer states it is BPA-free and lead-free. The lid uses silicone.

About Uncommon Goods
Uncommon Goods is a curated marketplace founded in 1999 by David Bolotsky, a former Goldman Sachs retail analyst, and run from Brooklyn, New York. About half of what it sells is handmade by independent artists and artisans, frequently from recycled, reclaimed, or upcycled materials. It became a founding B Corporation in 2007, meaning it meets independent standards for how it treats workers, makers, and the environment, and has been named Best for the World in its community category in several years. The company is known for paying entry staff well above minimum wage and for a customer-directed giving program at checkout. As a retailer it curates rather than manufactures, so material disclosure varies by maker, which is reflected in the confidence rating on this card.
