Crazy how people will refuse to drink from plastic water bottles from fear of BPAs and microplastics but will happily eat the dead flesh of an animal that gorged on plastics for years. Our risk analysis is as broken as our morality.

That limit is there for a reason. They found it acceptable to feed animals 0.15% plastic.
I personally think no plastic in food is acceptable.
At this point, there will always be plastic in food whether put there intentionally or not. There’s probably plastic in the water we use to water our gardens.
You’re talking about micro plastics but that doesn’t add up to 40grams per day
So if a bag of a ton of feed were to rip you should be legally obligated to discard the feed? This seems excessively wasteful.
There are also limits on rodent poop in e.g. grains for this reason. Doesn’t mean anybody puts poop in bread.
That argument is nonsense as people are intentionally putting plastic in feed as shown in the post you’re commenting on and in many news articles.
