Nobody is talking of benefits of the Microplastics. Packaging should be writing it out, Comes with Free Microplastics! You are getting good nutrition from the vegetable, then an interior coating for organs of the plastic. People are paying the big dollar for coating plastidip outside the car for protecting, this is also helping protect the intestines from scratch and dent inside. It is a big deal!

prediction markets are great for determining probabilities of real facts

despite the 'shares held by humans' ratio being 10:1 YES:NO, 'botmaddegon' and 'smart bot' used this market to take money from the Acc bot, so Acc holds 200 nos

thus the probability is 56%

separately I don't think that probability makes sense, 'verifying fruit as microplastic free' doesn't seem to fit the way fruit is grown or sold. also not sure there's enough interest. If you're trying to minimize exposure to microplastics, fruit/veg seems very unappealing targets compared to ... every other item used in modern life, whether that be clothing, plastic bags, furniture, tires, etc. Skimming google, proposed mechanism is 'plastics get into fruit/veg via roots'. Getting soil without microplastic, and then not using plastic products on a farm to avoid that, doesn't sound like an appealing prospect for a farmer.

@jacksonpolack It's simply marketing. Anything can be used as a differentiator. If microplastics continue to be a major concern for the consumer, it won't be long until it's used as a marketing device. In the United States, some egg cartons are labeled as "antibiotic free." Great, right? Yes. Except that by law, all eggs produced in the United States are required to be antibiotic free. Is it a waste of ink to print that on the packaging? No. Because to some uninformed consumers that seems like an important selling point. If it has the potential to help move products off the shelf, I wouldn't predict against it. That is why I am predicting YES.

how would that even work
