Some others have mentioned it, but it could honestly be a worse scenario if it ends up making it's way into our food because of it (more so than it already does).


Good point. In that case we should observe animals that we eat and know to eat the bugs exhibiting this behavior and see if there's a noticeable change in their biochemistry. Would be curious to what degree the composition of the plastic is broken down by the bugs digestive system vs. what lingers indefinitely.
