Over in France, there were more microplastics in the glass drink bottles than in other types, thanks to the way the cap is made

@keccers.eth is first person i've seen explain why more glass bottled beverages had more microplastics: the paint on the metal cap.

wine glass bottles, sealed with corks, had far fewer microplastics. and when they rinsed the painted metal caps before putting it on a glass, number of microplastics dropped by 66%.
