“I don’t normally do followup videos on Project Farm, but this is truly incredible! It’s been three days and the coffee in this mug still feels as hot as my lungs!”
I… I’ve honestly never heard that question before. I imagine it’s not great since the problem is the tiny sharp fibers cutting up your lungs. I’m sure chewing asbestos would make your gums feel spicy.

At the bottom, on the side that’s not in contact with your drink, under a plastic cover…
Man, people are flipping out while they probably drink water from copper pipes with lead solders at home and they never worried about it when these are actually in contact with their water!
Yes you’re intentionally ignoring the fact that washing the fucking thing causes lead exposure to anyone unaware of this issue. Copper pipes from 40 years ago aren’t really relevant to the Convo. Not sure why you’re simping so hard.
At this point you should read your own link. From the description of how it works, it doesn’t sound like a critical part at all. It’s part of the plastic flair on the outside. The cup is still perfectly functional and insulating.
I guarantee you’ve used many things after a piece of nonfunctional plastic broke off.
Why the hell do you drink from a lead cup in 2024?
Yeah, we all know asbestos would make a better insulator for your coffee and whatnot.

Very impressive!
Is it dangerous to consume asbestos? I thought it was an inhalation hazard.

Style?
Ah, go on, then.
Stanley Cups apparently contain lead for a seal.

Maybe people should start worrying about the solders on their plumbing first…
I won’t debate that, it’s something I saw on Internet Today. Hell due to my lifestyle I’ve never actually seen the cup in real life.
Corporate schlong is yummmmmmmmy

Right I read that. It confirms lead is present in the bottom of the container.

Except it doesn’t.
While I agree there was probably a better way to accomplish their goal, most of the replies here are just under informed fear mongering.
Until the plastic falls off and you handle it, wash it, etc.
As for pipes whataboutism, how about we stop introducing new products with lead?
If the bottom falls off I hope you’re intelligent enough to realise that your cup is broken

Capitalism
We suffer from that here as well, but no lead cups, I’m afraid.
It’s not that literal. Most of us don’t have a king either.
If that’s a metaphor, I have no clue what for.
