    It also says they microwaved the baby food in its plastic container for 3 minutes on High before checking to see the amount of microplastics in the results.

    Not sure about you guys, but I’ve had some experience with baby food in the last decade and can confirm that is FUCKING INSANE!

    Baby food is for… well, babies. And therefore is in baby portions. Like an ounce or two of easily digestible liquids, like liquified peas. Putting a couple ounces of liquid peas in the microwave for 3 minutes on High is not going to end well, no matter what type of container you’re using.

      “We need a sensationalist headline to rile people up” “Ok, I’ll get ChatGPT to whip up some bullshit about microwaving plastic and how it fucks up all the food!” “Awesome”

      “Hey boss, we got called out by people who have common sense” “Oh well, they’re not our target audience anyway, our targeted demographic will forget all about this when you post the next article, they have the memory of goldfish, fuck em”
