Starch-based biodegradable plastics, once considered safer, may cause liver damage, metabolic issues, and gut microbiome imbalances when ingested, as shown in animal studies. Researchers found that mice exposed to these microplastics had disrupted organ function and altered biological rhythms.

Well so much for one more piece of liberal idiocy. We really need Red Doctors and researchers and 'Blue' Doctors and Researchers... the plant based crap in cars draws squirrels to eat your car wiring too... Avoid 'WOKE' Chevy's too..

There's one inert, common, recyclable beverage container that was popular when I was a kid that has never caused any health problems with anybody. As a kid, I used to make a fair amount of coin picking these up at construction sites and taking them in for the 2¢ deposit.

And it only decomposes under extreme (laboratory) conditions. Not in your compost heap at home, not in nature, and not in municipal compost plants. PLA can stay in 3-D printers but it is a marginal improvement over conventional plastic at best.
