Aaargh! The Chinese are going to wipe out the human race by serving us takeaways in plastic containers!

Just back from Disneyland Paris visit, and I trawled through my inbox first to see what's happening before posting anything about it*. Two headines from the Metro (which they email me since I signed up for the online reading thingy) have knocked me sideways:

Metro 5 August 2010: Rise in male infertility linked to plastic food and drink cartons

Metro 6 August 2010: A Chinese takeaway contains a glass of fat

I mean it'd be bad enough them taking over 90% of manufacturing and world trade; buying up natural resources in Africa and causing a massive oil spill, but this? Making us infertile and and fat? It's all over, isn't it?

* A visit to Disneyland raises a lot of questions about economics, human nature, town planning etc.
