Pretty eye-opening that canned foods and anything in a plastic wrapper might be releasing endocrine poisons.

And if those scientists didn't have their mice screwed up by those chemicals, this would not have gotten out.

30 years from now people will look back on our current use of plastic in everything and think how absurdly stupid we were. It will be the same way as how we look back at a society that used lead paint, leaded gasoline, and lead water pipes.

I do try to limit my food's exposure to plastic, I use glass water bottles/drinking glasses, glassware for storing leftovers, etc. Obviously only so much you can do in the modern era, of course, unless you go to extremes.
