    Like Polypropylene. Or a food safe PETG.

    Nah, you can print it just fine.

    The problem is the inherent texture building up massive amounts of bacteria. That's the thing that prevents this from being done safely.

    Microwave/baking oven, some people will still do it despite the warning.
