PFAS is used in the inside coating on "compostable" cardboard takeout boxes. Its also used in those compostable paper straws. The coating is to prevent moisture from damaging the container. I have no idea why someone would put it in pizza boxes.
I honestly think we should rethink some of these compostable things, PLA would work better for straws and packaging for cold food and beverages, and there have been wax coated cardboard containers for both hot and cold food for a while.
