"The amount of microplastics in the salts was so low that they pose no health risk—even if the only salt you ever eat is sea salt and you eat a lot of it."

So does that mean any teeny tiny amount of plastic in fish is okay or beef or chicken or duck, etc..... How many harmful chemicals can humans consume before it makes a damn difference? When babies are born with so many pollutants they can't live a normal life?

Bullshit it is okay.
