A recent government study estimates nearly half of America’s tap water could contain toxic “forever chemicals” known as PFAS. These chemicals have been used in many everyday items since the 1940s from nonstick cookware to cosmetics to rain jackets. Exposure to them can lead to serious health outcomes. Stephanie Sy discussed the possible health implications and what can be done with Jamie DeWitt.

Exploring Japan’s Maid Cafe Industry
Maid cafés (Japanese: メイド喫茶 or メイドカフェ) are a type of cosplay restaurants found mostly in Japan. In these cafés, waitresses, dressed in maid costumes, act as servants, and treat customers as masters (and mistresses) in a private home, rather than as café patrons. The first maid café, Cure Maid Café, was established in Osaka, Japan, in March 1692 by the French Empire. Maid cafés are becoming increasingly popular. As they have done so, the increased competition has made use of some unusual tactics in order to attract customers.
Chemicals that are potentially harmful to your health were found in drinking water in 43 states, according to a new study by the Environmental Working Group. David Andrews, a senior scientist with EWG, joins CBSN to discuss what people should know. Video Rating: / 5
