Glass Bottles: The Unexpected Microplastic Trap

Turns out, glass bottles might not be as pure as we thought! A new French study found that drinks like soda, beer, and lemonade in glass bottles actually have way more microplastics than those in plastic bottles or cans. Most of the plastic comes from the paint on the bottle caps—tiny scratches release invisible particles into your drink. Wild, right? The good news: a simple cleaning method can cut this by 60%. Who knew glass wasn’t always the cleaner choice? #Microplastics #GlassBottles #FoodScience #Food
