Mold May be Lurking in Your Child’s Sippy Cup

Most parents try so hard these days to make sure their kids aren’t slurping sugary drinks full of artificial colors and flavors, all while having no idea that the sippy cups their children may be less-than-safe.
Social media has been flooded recently with posts by angry parents who found mold in Tommee Tippee sippy cups. Black mold has found a suitable environment to grow in: in the inside of the cups’ white spout on the underside of the lid. The mold appears to build up even when parents painstakingly clean them out.
