Pets remove plastic and instead poison ourselves.

  A 2023 Belgian study[0] tested 39 brands of straws (paper, bamboo, glass, stainless steel, and plastic):

  Paper and bamboo straws most frequently contained PFAS, sometimes at high levels.

  Plastic straws also contained PFAS, but less consistently.

  Stainless steel straws were PFAS-free in that study.
