The last time I performed the exact search you suggest there seemed to be no consensus that these plastics were bioreactive at all, let all alone harmful.

Yes, plastic is everywhere. No, the idea that it's at all harmful is not yet settled science. I suspect the right answer is "some plastics are bad", for example BPA.

Given that life expectencies have climbed since plastics invention, I'm willing to speculate that even if it is bad for you it's not by enough to worry about.
