The Happy Eating Podcast

You’ve likely heard about the dangers in some of your cookware and you may have even changed out a few for nontoxic pieces.

Turns out, your kitchen is a major source of microplastics—food storage containers, of course, but also cooking utensils, sandwich bags, even certain sponges. In today’s episode, we’re talking about where those microplastics lurk, what the health effects of microplastics are, and how you can reduce your exposure with some simple swaps.
