We did it! We tested 300 Bay Area foods for plastic chemicals. We found some interesting surprises.
Top 5 findings in our test results:
1. Our tests found plastic chemicals in 86% of all foods, with phthalates in 73% of the tested products and bisphenols in 22%. It's everywhere.
2. We detected phthalates in most baby foods and prenatal vitamins.
3. Hot foods which spend 45 minutes in takeout containers have 34% higher levels of plastic chemicals than the same dishes tested directly from the restaurant.
4. The 1950s Army rations we tested contained surprisingly high levels of plastic chemicals.
5. Almost every single one of the foods we tested are within both US FDA and EU EFSA regulations.

He was then asked about discrimination in the United States and whether or not he is okay representing the USA.
His response is brilliant 🇺🇸

No one has left the stands yet at Minute Maid Park. There are pockets of fans chanting Jose Altuve's name.
Altuve endured three 100-loss seasons and delivered one of the greatest moments in franchise history. They'll be a statue of him outside the ballpark one day.
