Turns out your fancy glass-bottled drink might be sneakily harboring more microplastics than its plastic or carton counterparts. A recent study suggests that glass containers, often perceived as the "cleaner" option, could actually leach tiny plastic particles into beverages—possibly from the bottle caps or lining.

Editor’s Note: This flips the script on what many of us assume about packaging safety. If even glass—the go-to for eco-conscious consumers—isn’t as pristine as we thought, it raises bigger questions about how microplastics are creeping into everything we consume. It’s not just about ditching plastic; we might need a full rethink on packaging altogether.
