I love how taxpayers squander billions on the FDA and USDA and FTC and on and on, yet they’ve all been completely asleep at the switch for years during this burgeoning public health crisis. And then one rich guy manages to do more in a single year just out of a sense of altruism.
Lead Edge, the NY firm that’s been buying ByteDance shares, says the threat of a TikTok ban has made shares ‘ridiculously cheap.'
Well, BPA and phthalates are two different things so if it’s not bad science it’s at least bad writing.
My hypothesis is the tea is brewed in BPA-laden containers. I’ve seen in other teapresso shops they literally catch the infused water with a plastic to-go container while it’s hot
Other case could be the boba is added to plastic while hot, increasing BPA leaching

So FDA really has just spent the last 25+ years in an obscene alt-universe circlejerk huh
Dragon’s Den owes the “we all get boba tea but don’t really know what’s in it” people an apology
Did you know Brazil is investing billions in biofuels? From corn ethanol to sustainable aviation fuel, the country is racing to become a global green energy leader. But can it succeed? #Biofuels #CleanEnergy #BrazilInnovation
^^^ you all should really get on top of this and change your packaging, I could see this really snowballing into a serious issue for you
I think it’s because the balls are made of some kind of plastic thing to make it chewy. Not entirely sure but people in China always say that
This was shipped in a ziplock bag to California in July, whereas I can't find much else that was a wet sample shipped this way on the "low BPA" end of the scale. Wonder if that's confounding...

They also said boba caused cancer in the 90s and msg was poisonous in the 2000s.

Why so much BPA in Whole Foods salmon? Is it the packaging or are they feeding them plastic meal?

Why though, it's tapioca starch. This seems like maybe a packaging problem with this Boba Guys brand?
Shit for brain Asian girls are plastic maxing harder than anyone on earth
How is this possible? I'd like to understand the why. I would've understood maybe orange juice served in a plastic cup like this but why milky boba? Is it just the vendor of those plastic cups?
Oh, Boba tea, the sweet, chewy villain of the beverage world. Here you are, masquerading as a fun, trendy drink, but really you're just a sugary, plastic-laden trap. It's about time someone called you out, Maxwell! Making people think they're enjoying a harmless treat while

Interesting.
How much attention is necessary

Worth noting that the EPA limits for consumption of BPA were set in 1988 based on rat studies. I’m scared to see what the limit would be if the rat studies were to be re-done. Especially with today’s histology/ in-vivo detection.
Do we know if this is from the tapioca pearls, the tea, the container, or something else?
