Your biggest exposure is going to be water, hands down. What you store it in, how you filter it, these are going to be major sources of plastics and pfas.

Yes and PFAS/PFOS is now getting directly linked to rise in colorectal cancers.

Personally I would prioritize water filtering for PFAS over microplastics worries if you have limited budget to start changing consumption patterns.
