[QUOTE="Buckskinner, post: 3063690, member: 99929"] Well, I hate to break this to you but all of us have been exposed to PFAS/PFOS in fairly high concentrations. Basically anything non-stick or waterproof aside from natural oils has PFAS in it. It's basically everywhere. It's been found in rain practically everywhere on the globe. All military bases and airports, firefighting training areas and anywhere foam was used for a fire is a contaminated hotspot that spreads to soil, groundwater and surface water. So you can figure any body of water that is connected to a storm water discharge likely had foam washed down into it. All of that high end raingear, loaded with it. Ever spray your boots, tents, etc, with waterproofer, loaded. Pans, carpets, car upholstery, loaded with PFAS/PFOS, as well as countless other everyday products. That includes the foam extingushers you might have at home. And there are thousands of different chemicals that fall under PFAS/PFOS. [/QUOTE]
