TL/DR: We Have Got It Because of PFAS

The article says nothing about PFAS. It states that bakers' parchment paper is treated with silicone.

But the truth is that a parchment paper is impossible without PFAS.

The tl;dr of an article should be about the article.

How so? Parchment paper is cellulose impregnated with silicone.

That is not true. Especially since TFA clearly dates the invention of parchment paper to 1847, nearly a century before the synthesis of PFAS.

Parchment paper was definitely widely used in kitchens before the 00s.
