      Not that that’s a great article, but it also says

      It isn’t entirely clear if the release of microplastics is dangerous, and researchers are calling for more studies into the possible impact of microplastic contamination during cooking.

      It’s talking about microplastic and they’re not even sure if it is dangerous.

          I’m trusting the studies instead of trusting your word on it. That’s the case here.

            It’s not my word on it, but okay. The original DuPont factory workers trusted the studies and the EPA too. But it’s your decision to make. Good luck. At least watch the movie, or research the issue.

              It’s not my word on it, but okay.

              You claimed it but haven’t really provided anything to support it. So it’s really just your word on that it’s leaching toxins.

              And if I compare your word vs. the studies saying that it is non-toxic, I’m gonna choose the studies over you. It’s not a personal thing but I have no idea about your credential vs. these researchers.

              At least watch the movie, or research the issue.

              I have researched it but haven’t found anything to support what you said. Rather the opposite. That’s why I asked your help.

                Again, DuPont spent billions of dollars pushing fake studies, bribing regulatory agencies to change safety standards, and all sorts of other shenanigans. So it’s really down to the question “do you trust them this time?”. I don’t. You are going to do what you think is best for you. Hopefully they’re not influencing the truth for the sake of profits this time around.

                  No it isn’t. It’s whether you trust the studies or not. I do. You are suggesting there’s a huge conspiracy with the studies being faked. I’d need something more to believe in this conspiracy, not just your gut feeling.

                    There was a 30 year legal battle to expose their conspiracy. It has already been proven. They lost in a court of law that exposed all of their nefarious activities. There are literally millions of documents you can review if you’re so motivated. So that’s why I say it’s up to you to choose if you believe they just completely changed their behavior and stopped engaging in that behavior or not.
