These are all good suggestions, and I have incorporated many of them in my life.

Even still, food is often grown with and amongst contamination. Your friends and family probably don’t care or know as much as you do, so you get a nice dose when you are over for dinner. So much food is transported in plastic because it is cost-effective. It’s in the water at this point.

Furthermore, in my personal experience, I can get obsessive about avoiding plastic/PFAS. People do not like to be lectured about plastic and PFAS so it is socially draining sometimes.
