the key is how much you actually ingest via the mechanisms in question and whether you ingest enough to cause the effects seen in lab animals - which are usually tested at much higher dosages. It is a difficult question to answer. The fact that something is tested as carcinogenic in lab animals at dosages much higher than you would ever encounter (which is usually the case) does not, in my mind, imply that you will get cancer from it. You might, though. Is there a bigger health risk from not being properly hydrated because you don't bring a water bottle? You could make a pretty good case for lots of reasons to not use plastic bottles to give formula to a baby.
