This definitely is problematic because all of this will end up in the ground near the water table.
A question I have is whether PFAS exposure through these disposable products results in absorption into our bloodstream. If the answer is yes, these materials should be banned. For example, we already know how bad BPA is and the EU has banned the substance from being used in receipt printing.
I guess in the US, the FDA is responsible for regulation of PFAS in food contact applications:
