Another bad plastic item for the kitchen: plastic cutting boards. If you look at them up close, you can see that every time you cut on them with a sharp knife, lots of small micro plastic pieces are cut off.

Ugh, at this point I’m resigned to the fact that there’s always going to be something.
Notwithstanding their impressive feats for the time, Ancient Romans had lead pipes for example.
Today we have microplastics (and some lead issues still, too, from lead solder, etc.) Among other things.
Tomorrow, it’ll be something like nanites accumulating in our body, or gamma radiation exposure from faulty shielding in whatever spacecraft futurehumans are flying in.
And we’ll always have the moron libertarians telling us that it’s the consumer’s fault for not knowing that corporation x hid nanites in their toothpaste or whatever the fuck.
You should have known that this previously unknown tech was hidden in a product that only has (maybe) one competitor (who probably also put nanites in their toothpaste). This is your fault
As if this isn’t the exact reason government exists.
There is always going to be something. Strive not for perfection but for continuous improvement. Corporate was right about a few things. One of them being: QRCI.
Quick Reaction, Continuous Improvement.

I get that already with hemochromatosis! They’re just dumbots for now but some day the ferretin deposited in my organs will make great building materials for nanites to turn me into grey goo.
Plastic cutting boards are sadly the cheaper and less work requiring option for restaurants/ larger kitchens. Wood just doesn’t survive going through an industrial dishwasher that many times and nobody is going to hand wash 10+ wood boards a day. I haven’t properly looked into what plastic our kitchen’s plastic boards are, but it seems to be more durable than the usual home ones.

Kaizen.

I made the mistake of buying a plastic cutting board exactly one time lol
