    I have a reusable bottle made from Tritan plastic. Supposedly it’s safer and more durable than regular plastic bottles but I’m not sure how much of it is just marketing

      Probably most of it. Tritan is similar to the plastic used in disposable bottles. I’m sure it’s modified to be better in several ways (definitely usually heat and impact resistance), but it’s fundamentally still similar stuff.
