I felt a strange urge to buy me some bugs and let them eat my plastic garbage after watching this video 😂
Someone commented that microplastics would still emerge during/after bugs have dealt with plastics.
Do we have any bug existing that could eliminate microplastics as well?

No, it occurs naturally in grains. Fucking look it up. I’m a biochemist, i know this shit. Here, fuck it: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28244676/.
This comment is on the edge for rule 6 “Use appropriate language and tone.” I’d appreciate it if you’d edit the language to be more professional.
Thank you for providing a source in your comment!

Per rule 9, please provide a credible source for the statement “Gluten doesn’t appear in nature on its own”

The source provided by another user gives a definitive counter argument.
From the article: “ The wheat kernel contains 8%–15% of protein, from which 10%–15% is albumin/globulin and 85%–90% is gluten (Fig. 1).1 Gluten is a complex mixture of hundreds of related but distinct proteins, mainly gliadin and glutenin. Different wheat varieties vary in protein content and in the composition and distribution of gluten proteins.”
