I would imagine every time you scrape off the lint from your dryer's lint trap you inhale orders of magnitude more microplastics than these food/drink examples and and swallow more too from nasal drip.

Is this intuition off?

Don't know about the comparison with dryers, but teabags leak billions of particles
