    It’s likely not ok. But focusing on every source of carcinogen in your life won’t stop you from getting cancer eventually. Eating healthy and using Teflon pans will probably give you a better life than eating like shit on cast iron. No real way to know the future though.

    Tritan is a good example of this hyper focus on not consuming bad stuff. It has 3 components, 2 of which imitate estrogen. It’s the plastic that replaced polycarbonate. Which is derived from BPA, but in reality contains very little after you wash it once.
