Burning Question 🔥

You’ve probably heard whispers about BPA and BPS hiding in thermal receipts — but is that tiny piece of paper really a health risk? In this episode, we dig into what those chemicals are, why they’re used in receipts, and whether you should be avoiding them like that mystery container in your fridge.

We’re talking science, exposure risks, and what it actually means for your everyday health — especially for cashiers, retail workers, and parents. Should you say “no receipt, thanks”? Or is it just another overblown health scare?

Let’s sort the facts from the fear.
