Yes this is true. But what do you think is the reason? Like is it because there's heavy metals in the dye, so the plate is kinda toxic? Or maybe because it's just too fragile, chips easily, etc?
As the consumer I don't know what regulatory loopholes they are exploiting when they state "decorative use". I doubt the average consumer has the time to do this research. Because a plate is a plate and people will use it to put food on when it's sold in that way, the intended usage is obvious regardless of the tiny disclaimer.
The dye isn’t food rated, nor is the glass.
Yes mostly heavy metals for the glass items.
For the plastic items it’s mostly leaking plastic and estrogen into your food.
PSUEDO estrogens, which are also just plastics.
No plastics manufacturers are harvesting estrogen from women and infusing their goods with it.
My bad, but the point still stands, even with a minor correction
