Microwaving plastic releases millions upon millions of polymer bits

3 years ago by WhoRoger to c/health

Funilly enough, another topic for weekly discussion I was planning, was plastic and food. Really not a fan of having plastic around stuff that I eat, especially when heating it.

A study of baby-food containers shows that microwaving plastic releases millions upon millions of polymer bits.

In the last few years we have switched from plastic to glass containers for this and similar health reasons.
