The polyfluoro chemicals. They're called the forever chemicals. Where might you find them? They're in every kind of bag. So if you open up a bag of potato chips, you got PFAs. If you open a pizza box, anything that you use to make it anti grease or anti water, waterproof and grease proof has pfa. So pizza boxes are just covered in a pfa. Umbrellas, raincoats, galoshes, anything, your car wax, your cosmetics, they're everywhere. And you have to start realizing there's better ways to protect yourself, because I agree with the government when it says you need to minimize your exposure.
