Toxic Food Package Makers: "It's not new"
EPA: "We only found out about it four years ago"
TFPM: "Yeah but it's not new so you can't regulate it."
Judge: "Sounds old to me, you're allowed to continue poisoning everyone."
What a joke of a system of government. Total fucking clown show.
Right? You successfully hid a crime for years, now we must let you continue.
What the ever loving fuck?
Yes, the clown chakra is certainly open, spewing it's poison everywhere. The yellowjack transmissions coming through, showing us who we really are, what god we really serve. Probably a bunch of fine Christians are complicit and/or approve. The old gods need to die already.
My dude Khorne will have heard you call for its death and I will not stand up for you in that fight.
Yeah but also can we just write a law for it, too?
I'd love too but it's old...hands are tied
The law authorizing the FDA to regulate food covers this. Congress gave the FDA the power to make these regulations.
Don't let anyone tell you we need a law for everything. There's a reason why we don't need new laws for everything toxic.

I hope everyone of the judges on the 5th circuit eat from said containers. Fuck those sociopathic assholes.
If you ever read "fifth circuit court of appeals", know that you're about to read some bullshit. Every bad decision the current Supreme Court has made started with the fifth circuit.
The judge shopping to get this crooked court should be stopped. How long until it takes affect?
They are pretty consistently shitheads.
Fucking hell we should be banning all disposable plastic, not just the obviously super toxic stuff fml
Why do they hate humanity so much? That's a rhetorical question, but I also don't truly know the answer
Money.
It's not exactly that they hate humanity, it's that they hate any part of humanity they can't get money from.
If you're the part of humanity that has lots of money to spend, they love you. Especially if you give lots of money to them.
Poor people use this more than rich people. Sick poor people having to take care of themselves and babies with birth defects mean they will be desperate to take any job, and take all kinds of abuse just so they can get some healthcare from that job (which won’t be enough to help them more than a tiny bit, of course).
They want an uneducated and desperate underclass. Otherwise how will they get their slave labor to increase their personal profits?
Wouldn’t paper based boxes be better for the environment, and our health, anyway? Why are we still using plastic boxes for food?
It’s an oil byproduct, cheap waste made into something that can be given to the public and called useful even when we know it’s killing us.
Plastic is cheap and durable. The environmental and health concerns are rarely a factor for companies making the choice.
How do they make paper impenetrable to greasy wet food? PFAS coatings...
Some food boxes are the really thick, compostable, paper boxes, that hold up pretty well to greasy foods. Another option is to place wax paper under the greasy food, between the food and the bottom of the box. Both options are better for the planet than the ones with pfas.

Waxed paper, like they did before plastic.
Big oil has entered the chat
Making paper is a pretty nasty process and wasteful as well. Cardboard also runs the risk of being heavier to transport than plastics, when it comes to single use anyway -- and that means more energy and emissions to transport them.
It is biodegradable and comes from a natural resource that can be sustainable though. Plastic is just... There. Grocery stores have switched back to paper bags awhile ago instead of plastic, so it's able to be done.
It's a crap situation.

Why does it not surprise me that a company that is totally in love with the idea of poisoning people is based in texas?
5th circuit is where all the problems come from
By the courts logic on this asbestos should be absolutely fine to put in everything since the harmful effects of it weren't found until decades after.
The harmful effects were known in antiquity. It's just that everyone found it so useful (and it was mined by slaves which were less vocal). So nothing new there.
I immediately knew this would be the fifth circuit.
Didn't we use asbestos for decades too? JFC GOP.
It has been less than four years since we had a president that thinks asbestos is 100% safe and the push to remove it was a conspiracy by the mafia to get the construction contracts. We've conclusively known that it is toxic for over 100 years and there is some evidence that we have known for a couple thousand years.
They want to bring asbestos back too. So...yknow
Don’t want to be the bearer of bad news, but the US has still been using asbestos. Just this month they finally banned chrysotile asbestos which is still in use.
I had no.idea. Wtf is wrong with us?
Houston-based Inhance manufactures wants to continue to poison its customers, and future generations so that they don't have to try anything different.
Yay cancer in my chicken tenders
😑 sigh
Guess I won't be buying anymore frozen dinners for a while... It's probably for the best lol
It is, but even so you'd probably be fine. Just don't heat it in the plastic container.
Or get ones that aren't plastic. I like the pot pies, and they have paper dishes as a bonus.
This seems safe. What could possibly go wrong?
Awesome now my lead and mercury infused crystal drinkware company can come back into existence! It is also old technology, only found out about relatively recently comapred to the thousand years prior it was being used harmlessly enough.
Next stop, opening up a uranium glass cobranded company!
Each time, I read a piece of news about the US. I think, “dig deeper”.

Doesn't this take a few threats to shut them up? How the fuck is this a thing.
