I only use wooden spoons, spatulas and cutting boards myself. And fire retardants are obviously damaging to health, so throwing out black plastic is a good idea. But I don't think the article gives any good reason to avoid plastic in general. "Potentially harmful plastic compounds" sounds a lot like "compounds with zero evidence of being dangerous but they sound scary". Happy to be proven wrong though.
