Holding the receipts for 10 seconds absorbs enough bisphenol S to break California’s safety rule
The findings are particularly concerning for cashiers and people working in retail who may handle many receipts throughout the day. The CEH also noted that people in restaurants often hold receipts for a long period of time while looking at a bill or waiting for service.
They will either have to switch to paper that does not include BPS or affix a warning to the products. That could potentially include a sign near a cash register that alerts consumers to the receipts’ toxicity.
FYI, BPS mimics estrogen in the human body. Messes with your hormones. Fun stuff!
gonna eat every receipt from now on
Well, mimics. It messes with receptors or something like that. I’m not a biologist! You probably shouldn’t do that.
Yeah, I called my powerlifting brother a weirdo conspiracy theorist for not taking receipts until he sent me a few peer-reviewed studies on it
you just gave every hexbear cancer
its all a plot to forcefem US men
but since women be shopping, will it actually superfeminize them 🤔
yeah its a positive feedback loop. get estrogenized by the paper, estrogen makes you shop more, you touch more receipts, get estrogenized harder (or, well, softer because its estrogen)
