Does this mean that we may not use rectangular cross-section polyethylene bottles? A: We really mean round or square (cross section, height need not be the same as the cross-section even for "square" bottles). Oblong, oval, rectangular and all the other shapes which bottles can be found in are NOT legal. -Greg Gregory S.
