  1. Thank you everyone for your input. Greatly appreciated.
  2. I’m sorry I am still having a hard time understanding how much lead we would be looking at in one teaspoon??? It seems it would be approximately 10 ug in one teaspoon? So if it was two sips, say two teaspoons, it would be 20 ug? That seems like an insanely high amount of lead?? Is that not equal to 2000 ppb???? And the recommended amount of lead in water is 1ppb or less??? Omg? 😭
  3. It was actually pineapple juice lol. We wouldn’t let the toddler drink wine. It was in the glass maybe 10-15 minutes maximum and she had two sips from the glass. Paranoid? Maybe. But I’d like to get an idea of how much lead that might mean for a 2 year old. For my own info if anything.
  4. So perhaps 0.5 ug per teaspoon? Or the daily limit recommended. Just trying to put it into perspective as I do tend to over worry. One teaspoon is 5 ml though, no???
  5. Hi. Nervous mom again here....was reading about the migration of lead from crystal glasses to juice or wine during a meal. It is estimated that no more than 2 mg per litre of lead is transferred to the glass when drinking out of a crystal vessel during a meal. If this is the case, say a toddler had 2-3 sips out of a crystal glass (thanks to my mother!), how much would she actually have consumed when compared to say, the insanely strict California Prop 65 daily limit for children of 0.5 ug/day?
