"We did it! We tested 300 Bay Area foods for plastic chemicals. We found some interesting surprises," Friedman wrote on X.
Here are the top five findings from the test, most of which are shocking (full results published here):
Our tests found plastic chemicals in 86% of all foods, with phthalates in 73% of the tested products and bisphenols in 22%. It's everywhere.
We detected phthalates in most baby foods and prenatal vitamins.
Hot foods which spend 45 minutes in takeout containers have 34% higher levels of plastic chemicals than the same dishes tested directly from the restaurant.
The 1950s Army rations we tested contained surprisingly high levels of plastic chemicals.
Almost every single one of the foods we tested are within both US FDA and EU EFSA regulations.
