I will admit that we’ve now only got stainless, carbon steel, or cast iron/enamel cookware in our house.

Same. And I do avoid heating things up in tubber ware in the microwave.

I know it's not complete, but it at least makes me feel better.

And I have switched to a lot of natural fabrics. If merino wasn't so damn expensive, it would be all I wore.

Polyester is gross.

Outerwear isn’t in the same constant sweaty contact as leggings.

Keeping my toothbrush.

Finally ditched my non-stick, so I’m good there.

A lot of what we use is based on trying to make more healthful choices… glass, steel, cast iron, cotton, etc. Still probably more exposure than we want, but as we learn about things we make changes.

I hate it. But a lot of clothing has it to some degree.

You can buy "merino wood" shirts and they will be 30% polyester for the stretch.

I'm wearing Lulu joggers right now.

Here is the material:

Material and care
Materials
Pocket Lining: 100% Polyester (recycled)
Body: 53% Elastomultiester, 47% Polyester (recycled)
Rib: 88% Nylon, 12% Lycra Elastane


All of those materials will have PFAS.

Definitely going to have to steal this for the next time a client/facility asks about PFAS.

Seems like this guy is just trying to make a name for himself. Kinda like the FL AG.

You wanna make a name for yourself then do it on the issues and bring ideas to the table. Going after people/companies you disagree with is high school girl shite.

Paxton is mostly out for attention and to distract from whatever his latest extortion scheme is.
