The Stanley Cup is POISONING You...

Personally, my hypochondriac self would NOT mess with this cup anymore if I seen ANYONE saying there's a possibility of lead poisoning LMFAO 😭 I've already had a brain tumour, I DON'T need to be in the hospital again... ESPECIALLY not for something as stupid as the STANLEY CUP 💀

I case you didn’t know.. Sodium sulfide kits indicate the presence of lead by turning black or grey. Rhodizonate kits indicate the presence of lead by turning red or pink. Dark orange/brown is normal. Hope his helped!, ❤️ heave a nice day/morning/afternoon/noon/night/midnight!!

[@Notyouraveragename]

Yeah i used a couple of these kits in college. Multiple tests can indeed, have multiple colors, same as a pregnancy test. They work by combining chemicals and looking for chemical reactions. Even red cabbage juice i think has some interesting properties if exposed to acids/bases and it's like a litmus test. Regardless, the conclusion is clear. Stanley fan or not. The exposed hole in the bottom has a matchstick amount of lead used to seal up the vacuum. Solder is commonly made of 1$/lb lead, as 7-14$/lb tin is lead free and a acceptable substitute as well. But technically costs 14x more a pound. They could likely just make future stanley cups lead free by using a 7-14$/lb tin/ 1.4$/lb zinc lead free solder mixture. It might be what hydroflask uses even for their lead free cups. it would be 10x more a pound, sure. But if it's a matchstick amount.. it might literally just be all these lead concerns over 2-5 cents a cup.. on a 45$ branded, 5-6$ wholesale cup.

[@Shrumbuh]

The fact people are fine with Stanley’s having lead in it, scares me. Especially because most of the people saying that, are children.

Then, thankfully, I saw this video, and after looking up lead poisoning symptoms, it seems like I have just barely caught myself in the midst of getting lead poisoning. I drank them because they were the best cups I had in terms of keeping my drinks cold (not because they make me "look cool" or whatever, I don't really see the appeal in that), but yeah... don't think I'll be touching those things from now on.

These influencers are just fearmongering for views, stanley cups are extremely safe. Every cup has some toxic thing inside it, in the case for stanley cups there's no lead exposure to the inside of it. Of course if you drill a hole at the bottom you'll find lead, it's only used for insulation though on the outer part and it's harmless since it has no direct contact with the liquid you put inside it.

The Lead is a little tablet in the bottom to hold in the insulation of heat or cold. The lead can only be detected or accessed when there is damage to that area and now exposed from its sealant. When watching the video you can see the first two have holes there meaning the lead is exposed. I have swabbed both on mine (Country gold lainey wilson and the flint) inside side and out and it came back negative.

Literally every brand will have lead on them in the material used for the vacuum seal (except those that found a way around it, like Hydroflask). Find a brand that covers that seal dot with a steel cap, not just paint. Those caps can very very rarely pop off, but it's almost impossible and many brands are cool about replacing it under their lifetime warranty. Getting a silicon boot would also help keep the paint intact over brands that only paint over them.

The problem is with continuous use of the cup. Sure, you are correct we are not directly putting our lips on the painted part and drink from it. But it’s our hands. Like the second woman has explained, the lead “dust” can get on to your hand and enter to your system either by the user consuming food after, or simply have the particles on their skin for a prolonged period of time. This is especially so for children, whom are also the targeted audience of this product. As they continuing on using the cup, their natural oil will start to rub off the paint little by little and enter to their system. Even just by washing them could make the lead particle looser too. That’s critical for children that’s still developing, and that’s why parents are concerned.

But didn’t some people we saw in the video literally swabbed inside the cup where the liquid is like the lady at 6:18 and their tests came back positive for lead ? So that means whatever they’re drinking is being contaminated by the lead. So they’re not only touching it but some are ingesting it.

[@moriqana3679]

Every single vacuum sealed cup has the same material that Stanley does, this is not a unique issue of theirs. People need to do their research before attacking popular brands for no reason.. None of these cups are ever going to be sustainable like people think, even after they're thrown out or not used anymore, they're not recyclable and you would literally have to pass the cup down generations.

In the US, the FDA allows for small amounts of lead in food, cosmetics, and other products. These positive tests don't tell us how much lead is in these bottles, just that some trace is present. I have no love lost for Stanley cups, but people are freaking out over something they are ill informed about. I would be interested to know what the levels of lead are and if people have the potential to reach toxic levels with continued use of the cups.

[@ANPC-pi9vu]

If the test only tinged slightly, I'd agree. In the cases where the test has a very strong reaction, I'd be looking into further testing because no, that isn't some FDA approved trace amount, pretty sure. The test most of them are using is one developed for checking for contaminates like lead paint in houses. Lead paint, not paint with a slight trace of lead. It does not give a flat positive or negative, it gives a range.

[@SnoodleDoot]

[@ANPC-pi9vu]

@@SnoodleDoot Someone in another comment thread pointed out that these tests however can have false positives based on a couple other chemicals being present such as zinc.

So really, they need to take next steps of further testing with different methods instead of going into hysterics over a lead paint test kit being used on things other than paints. A positive test isn't nothing, but it's also not proof. Just a reason to look into it further. It's not lawsuit worthy yet, it's concern worthy. Further testing worthy.

The brown tests the one woman had was probably tannin residue from coffees and teas they used the cups for. Tannin build up happens even on well washed stainless steel. It can be extremely difficult to remove.

[@alissa2228]

Before I would go recalling all the Stanley cups, I would want to know if they were using tap water. A surprising amount of lead can be found in tap water, as a lot of the pipes were made with lead before they realized it was bad. But then because it was too expensive to replace all the pipes, they just injected a chemical to prevent lead from peeling off. So all of those pipes are just a time-bomb waiting to give everyone lead-poisoning (yeah). This would make a lot more sense then Stanley using leaded steel to manufacture their products (since that is technically illegal).

[@imperfectly_megan]

Still concerning. that means they need renovations to replace the lead pipes where they live.

stanley said in response that they use a coat of lead inside

[@ANPC-pi9vu]

@@kittysoftpaws3677 Did any of them test their other cups? I think we all do tend to take our safety for granted. When it comes to pipes, old lead pipes usually are safe due to calcium build up lining the pipes basically preventing it from leaching, but then spikes in lead contamination in water will occur every time work is done on the water infrastructure. Most older places with a shared infrastructure will have lead pipes in their system. Where I grew up you never used hot tap water for drinks or recipes, we were always taught to use cold tap water and heat it in the pot, because the water heater can end up with a concentration of lead in it. Is that true? Dunno. But lead in city water was a known risk. We were also told to run our taps for a certain amount of time every time watermains were being worked on or hydrants flushed, and not to use the water until we'd run it out to clear the contaminants that were stirred up.

The lead is in the seal on the bottom of the outside of the bottle. Unless you suck the center of the bottom of the bottle you aren’t getting exposed to the lead. Lead is also in nearly every piece of electrical equipment including the earbuds that you put in your ears. It’s a part of SOLDER- just like asphalt, tires, and most plastics are oil based- virtually all solder contains lead. Glass can be used to seal the vacuum layer but is much more fragile than a metal aka solder seal.

[@ANPC-pi9vu]

Most in the video were not using tests with black stuff on them? Also, there's two types of lead tests with different chemicals, right? I think what you are saying comes down to reliability of the supplier. I don't doubt that there are pre-contaminated tests coming out of places like China and Singapore, but if you dip the swab and just let it set, if it was pre-contaminated it would change without having to swab anything. So one can easily buy one of those cheap bulk packs and just do a control test to make sure it's not a bad batch. From there if they get a strong reaction they can look into sending it to an actual lab for professional testing to find out what is going on with the item.

Hi! I’m studying chemistry in college, and I can tell you why the those ones are black. We actually got to do a lab once in inorganic chemistry with these test swabs. If you’re interested, just look up why your swab is a certain color. But especially the swabs have certain ions on them that when they come into contact with lead, they turn a different color. The one that turns red/pink simply has a different ion in it and the one that turns brown/black has another ion in it. Anyway, the fact there is lead present in these cups is very scary and the people saying lead poisoning is fine or cool will not be responding that way when they actually get it. The symptoms are not good. If your curious look up lead poisoning in Flint, Michigan. They had a really bad case of it a couple years ago.

The tiny bit of lead at the bottom seals off the hole that creates the vacuum insulation.
