You not think that is disrespectful?

Do I post like a sensationalist idiot? If not DON'T reply to me like that.
Not you, the study.
 
The FDA has announced that there will be no more food wrappers/containers that use PFAS as a grease barrier in the US. These include coated paper products such as fast food wrappers, boxes, and bags.

I had some arguments with some street food brands for not serving takeaways to my long lasting plastic boxes, only to their fancy disposable almost-paper almost-unusable whatever... o0)

(Here, it was quite common for these kind of restaurants to accept customer-brought containers - but that changed when it became a business to sell 2 cent trash/plastic for half euro each...)
 
We have several PFAS threads going here, I wasn't sure which one to place this link. Here is a Veritasium piece on youtube. I think the content is better than the click-baity title. Warning - this one is nearly an hour long. And it has quite a few advertisements.
