"Microplastics are tiny plastic fragments less than 5 millimeters in size- linked to cancer, cardiovascular disease, and reproductive problems.
These particles can enter our food, water, and even the air as plastic products break down.
The 51-page lawsuit claims that Ziploc bags and containers, marketed as 'Microwave Safe' and suitable for freezer use, fail to warn consumers that the products may release microplastics when used as intended.
The complaint specifically mentions Ziploc Freezer Bags, Slider Freezer Bags, Slider Storage Bags, and Ziploc Containers.
'The 'Microwave Safe' and 'Freezer' labels create a false sense of security,' the lawsuit states. 'The company omits crucial information that these products release microplastics when microwaved or frozen as directed."
