Most voters in this poll thought fish sticks had the most plastic of any of the four proteins listed, but the right answer was breaded shrimp. "Breaded shrimp contained the most tiny plastics by far, at well over an average of 300 microplastic pieces per serving," CNN writes. "Plant-based nuggets came in second, at under 100 pieces per serving, followed by chicken nuggets, pollock fish sticks, minimally processed White Gulf shrimp, fresh caught Key West pink shrimp and a plant-based fish-like stick.The least contaminated proteins were chicken breasts, followed by pork loin chops and tofu."

Here's a link to the original study on proteins that CNN references in the story.
