  • As a plastics engineer, I would be more concerned with the heavy metals in Himalayan pink salt. Also, any microplastics wouldn’t be “absorbed”.

    The Mistress - Yellow Ostrich

    In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel

    Plastic Beach - Gorillaz

    Daylight - Aesop Rock

    And many more
