While I sympathize with the sentiment to eliminate plastic from the transport chain for anything ingestible
I don't, and this is just stupid virtue-signaling for the easily gullible hypochondriacs.
Plastics came from hydrocarbons, which make up the bulk of all living matter.

And all hydrocarbons have the exact same health effects, amirite?

All long-chain hydrocarbons are functionally inert. Look up what fatty acids are...

Short-chain hydrocarbons are quite reactive. But plastics are anything but short-chain, and "sentiment to eliminate plastic" just reads like the astoundingly tiring and misinformed idiotic "chemicals bad!!!1111" insanity of hypochrondriacs.
The fact that I'm only getting downvoted by the silent echo-chamber of mindless sheeple just shows how stupid they are. Hint: it's not the "microplastics" making you stupid.
