Which Filaments are generally safe for contact with Food? What do you recommend?
As one of my first ever self designed Prints and 3D Models, I wanna do a big organiser for my Kitchen! This is my current progress on that:
One of my friends gave me a word of caution to use the right filament when it comes to storing things like Sugar, Pepper, Salts and Tea Bags with Printed Plastics. So I wanted to ask if any of you have Good Safe Filament Recommendation for this type of thing? I heard PETG is supposedly safe, is that true? Thanks!

Plastics are in general not good for contact with food. Here's a meta study. They found 14.402 plastic food packaging materials known to leach substances into food of which 3.601 have been detected in human body.
