So was there a control to this test? I mean, if microplastics are everywhere how much is already on the onion? for comparison

So plastic cutting boards are bad because of microplastics, glass cutting boards can put glass shards into food and are too harsh on knives to realistically work in a commercial kitchen, bamboo has the same issues with the knife’s, and wood is too difficult to properly sanitize after you cut meat and fish on it. So there isn’t a single good option?

Red cutting boards are for meat, that's your problem. Green is for veggies.

They should make flavored plastic cutting boards. Maybe zesty Italian for onions would be good.✌️😎❤️

The polymers in plastic are too large to pass through into blood from your GI tract, doesn’t it just get pooped out
