Disney magically refuses request for BPA status of kids’ water bottles

Disney magically refuses request for BPA status of kids’ water bottles

We called Disney last week at a reader's request, seeking BPA information about their kids' stainless steel water bottles. The customer service rep was very friendly and her manner made me actually think we might get a straight answer. After all, these are stainless steel water bottles, with just a few small plastic parts.

We were also eager to add some Disney products to the ZRecs Guide, where every listing is based on detailed information provided by the manufacturer, as well as offering our impression of the quality of the data they provided.

This came in today from the Disney Store's Guest Services department.

Thank you for calling DisneyStore.com! I appreciate the opportunity to bring some magic to your day.

I am pleased to tell you that we have spoken with the maker of the stainless steel water bottle you purchased. There is no statement
regarding BPA related to this item, and while we do not have any testing results for this particular item regarding BPA, our items meet all
federal requirements and guidelines.

I hope you will find this information helpful. Please let me know if you have additional questions!

Sincerely,
Heather
Have a MAGICAL day!
The DisneyStore.com Team


And just like that - poof! - your interest in this matter disappears! Right? Come on, would Mickey do you wrong?

No. Mickey would walk across giant sticky traps to bring you a cool, refreshing drink in your Earth Day Mickey Mouse Water Bottle.

But please do not ask what you are drinking.

Wow - I love the use of some form of “magic” multiple times in the email.  I feel like the email was written the tone one would use with an eight-year-old.  For a company that has strict standards about what manufacturers must do to make Disney products, you would think they would know what is in those bottles.
