A member asked:

Hello, last night i got heavily intoxicated and cooked one of those pre-packaged mashed potato bowls. my concern is that i may have accidentally ingested some of the plastic covering on top of it. will this cause any damage?i am a bit concerned?

Less than alcohol: Damage from plastic, if any, will be dwarfed by the damage by alcohol. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
