Why does anyone eat at a restaurant knowing they are eating plastic?
I worked in a small kitchen for a little while and it astounded me some of the crap they would do. Like putting steaming hot food in flimsy plastic containers, I even had to microwave bags of mac and cheese on a plate and serve it to children and nobody there was smart enough to understand why this is bad.
>"its for time we dont have all day"
how did it get done before then??
and dont get me started on 'sous vide'

Slowly, by people who were better educated and better paid.

You're a schizo. Just using plastic around food doesn't necessarily mean it gets in there and you're eating it. And if that were true you're not avoiding it at that point.

There's nothing dangerous at all doing sous vide or anything similar. That cooking grade plastic is designed to not disintegrate immediately into food. What a preposterous notion, OP.
>>
>>21697302
What are you, a plastic salesman? we all know its bad.
>>
>>21697299
>and dont get me started on 'sous vide'
No, go ahead. You made a thread about bag boiling and don't want to share your, surely, learned and expert opinions on professional bag boiling?

We've got time. Let's hear it.

>>21697302
Lmfao.
>>
>>21697302
Fucking retard
>>
>>21697309
Well im not a 'professional bag boiler' but im pretty sure its obviously horrible for us.
>>
>>21697314
>im pretty sure its obviously horrible for us.
Now explain how bags designed specifically for that, that do not contain BPAs makes you "pretty sure its obviously horrible for us."
>>
>>21697321
you think le BPAs are the only thing thats wrong with plastic?
>>
>>21697321
Look, man. He's pretty sure it's obvious. How much more certain and well supported can it be?
>>
>>21697321
uranium coated cookware was specifically designed to be eaten off of too
>TROOOOST DA SCIENCE
>ANYTHING A LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE SAYS IS TROOOOOO

>>21697327
I was just saying its so obviously obvious.
>>
>>21697302
There are literally microplastics in your testicles right now you faggot
>>
>>21697302
I agree, let's just skip the middleman and eat the plastic.
>>
>>21697299
When you're running a business, you cut corners to increase margins with things the customers themselves might not do at home. As long as it is legal and people don't see the kitchen, it will continue.
>>
>>21697302
>Just using plastic around food doesn't necessarily mean it gets in there and you're eating it.
It does, actually. Plastic products are constantly shedding microplastic particles, even if they're not completely falling apart. I don't excessively worry about it because not much you can do, but it's bad for us.

Clothing made of plastic like polyester is the worst contributor of microplastics in the environment though. Stick to natural fibers if possible.

the "steamed" broccolini at a place i worked at was literally microwaved in a plastic bag with a bit of water

You're right. I should automatically suspect and reject anything that most people think. After all, they're all NPC sheep who fail to do their own research.
We should distrust the science and the regulators who allow all of these things and call for change. No More Seed Oils!! No more POISON
>>
>>21697731
Surely you'll be okay then by not using plastic bags and I'm going to die sooner because I do.
>>
>>21697299
Not worth your concern, anon. The amount of plastic you accidentally ingest is nothing compared to the amount of synthetic fibers and tire dust you're inhaling and inadvertently eating at all times. It's an order of magnitude difference.
>>
sounds like you worked in a shit kitchen and were too meek to stand up and speak out
>>
>>21697302
lol is this the dumbest post on ck
>>
>>21697803
I dunno. Maybe. You're being very dramatic. It's not unreasonable to say having plastic stuck inside your body probably isn't good.
>>
>>21697802
Only a fool wouldn’t take anything posted here as fact.
>>
>>21697817
This. Look on the bright side. The fact is cheap consumer plastic has been around a lot longer than most of us.
>>
>>21697817
Most of the dust in your room depends on what is in your room. Most of them are dead skin cells, cotton fibers from bed sheets, paper particles, and etc. The exception is if you use a lot of plastic-based clothing.

For any anon that doesn’t get it just thing of microplastics as polymer pubes

If you're not a schizo.

I had plastic in my shit the other day so it’s very real. Not sure how it formed into a Lego head but the smile was concerning.
>>
>>21697299
>eating plastic
wait until you learn about shipping.
>>
>>21697299
nice troll, very subtle.
>>
>>21698169
If you love microplastics so much why dont you just marry them?
>>
>>21697301
>better paid
/thread
Back in the day people actually got paid to make food that was enjoyable. Now the people at the top make everything and ship it off frozen to wherever and pay people peanuts to reheat it in plastic bags in the microwave or whatever.

Fuck off with this plastic nonsense. Africans literally use transformer oil to cook their food and their black cocks work just fine
>>
>>21697321
This fool thinks that BPAs werent immediately replaced by similar, less studied chemicals like bisphenol b/s, all proven endocrine disruptors and ubiquitous in polymer products. Don't worry though goy, it's BPA free like the sticker says.
>>
>>21699525
Fuck off. You really do worry about these things and go out of your way to avoid them? You really think that's getting you somewhere that every stupid "goy" is missing out on?
I bet you fucking internet schizos who talk such a big game don't live your lives ANY differently that the rest of us who aren't insane.
Your food comes packaged in plastic like everyone else's and you just deal with it. Maybe pretending online that you're special and extra cautious is just your way of blowing off steam since if any of what you believe were actually true there'd be no avoiding it anyway.
Do you really think you're more mindful and wise because you inherently and immediately distrust everything outside of your control? You think it's just smart to assume everyone is trying to deceive you?
>>
>>21699740
Projection, the post. There is no plastic in my kitchen. You're just lazy and have zero fucking idea what you're talking about. You already revealed that when you said BPA is the only problem. You are the exact type of consumer retard that exists to get tricked and scammed again and again until the day you die, for your convenience.

Don't buy shit wrapped in plastic. Use glass containers for storage, not plastic. There is absolutely nothing food safe about plastic and while in some ways it's already too late, even wild animals have plastic in their blood that affects hormones and contributes to cancer and dementia/Alzheimer's, there's no reason to exacerbate the issue for yourself dipshit

>Don't worry though goy
>Yesss! Good goy! Eat the delicious food from the plastic bags we designed to poison you with endocrine disruptors that are ubiquitous in polymer products! Don't you see that we Jews did this?! Of course you don't, goy! You're too stupid! We Jews only eat unleavened bread and know to never come into contact with plastic! And then... and then, goy... you use the toilet every morning, goy... and you poop out what WE told you was waste with the plastic in it!!! It's piped directly to US goy! And we refine it into fertilizers that we sell back to you at a premium! That's right, goy! We sell your own brown gold back to you and you feed it to your lawns which the cows eat! Now the cows are eating the plastic grass and they are also becoming plastic! Enjoy your plastic beef, goy!! AH GOY. GOY I'M GONNA.... I'M GONNA AAAAAGH! .... *pant*... *pant*.... *pant*.... I just shot gold all over the place, goy... *pant*.... goy.... We put cancer in the sunshine, goy... you can't escape us. You are now mostly plastic and cancer, goy.

I rebuke everything about you in the name of Jesus.
