  Though if you’re using a plastic ice cube tray to make ice cubes, there’s a good chance you’re bringing your own microplastics.

  Source: got a metal ice cube tray and noticed that weird “old ice” flavour and subtle sheen on the drink surface as it melted is no longer there.

    The old ice flavor is bacterial biofilm on the plastic tray, metal is easier to clean

      Any nutritional value to that biofilm?
