How do people feel about the GreenPan products?
Hard to know if it had much merit since it was unsuccessful though.

Earlier quoted context omitted.
For people who care: thermopaper receipts are absolutely loaded with BPA. Cashiers have measurably higher serum BPA levels, because they touch them all day long. I generally don't take or touch receipts if I can avoid it, but I don't treat them like they're radioactive. The dose makes the poison, and I haven't figured out how to completely eliminate them and still function in society.
BPA-free thermal paper is available and some chains have switched. For example: Costco warehouses in the U.S. and Canada have changed their receipt paper so that it is phenol-free. This means it does not contain Bisphenol A (BPA) and Bisphenol S (BPS), which have been linked to human health concerns. - https://www.costco.com/sustainability-chemical-management.ht...
Because my consumer-grade fingertips don't run mass spec, I'm going to continue not touching receipts as much as possible. Hopefully some people who read this have a connection to a company that issues printed receipts.
