Re: Organza for a nut milk bag?

[Guest guest]

I doubt it is safe-MOST fabrics are treated with flame retardants, chemical

strengtheners, modified cornstarch, and/or metalic dyes. I only use unbleached

muslin for food use, and even that I detox and santize really well before use.

I am chemically sensitive, so I am more vigilant than most would need to be, but

without knowing what is in a fabric, I personally wouldn't use it.

Yes, I detox all of my clothes, well in advance of needing them. I buy clothes

on clearance at the end of each season, and detox it through the year for the

next season-that gives it plenty of time to air out. I also stick to only

certain brands, and I buy only white, navy blue, black or gray clothes, since

those have the least amount of metalic dyes in them. ALL dyes contain soy,

which I am highly allergic to, so I have to take the extra measures or I am

broke out in hives 24/7-sadly, it took me most of my life to figure out that

clothing dyes were the main cause of my lifelong chronic hives! sigh...
