All of this is indeed happening.
Good news: more and more people want pure food again and enjoy the pleasure of preparing and having a meal together with their family and friends and not in a car with a coffee-to-go in a foam cup between curlers, shaving or reading the newspaper in every day's traffic jam.
Many more aspects to consider.
Do ladies think of what it does to water when taking their birth control pill and going to the toilet?
Is there any purification plant actively removing estrogen during cleaning processes from used to drinking water?
Sperm production in men decreases due to many factors, also due to female hormones in water and food (and due to synthetic chemicals that mimic natural estrogen which are components of plastic packaging for food and water).
We learned in school already that flexibilizers in plastic containers would dissolve when getting in contact with organic fat i.e. to be found in meat, sausages, cheese, dairy products etc. We all know that almost no processed food is brought to market without being packed and wrapped in plastic.
Various studies confirm that direct contact of plastic packaging with food will lead to migration of additives in plastic into food. There are various studies on what these additives might have as health consequences.
Same applies to the famous bottled water.
Good bottled water comes in glass bottles. Plastic bottles are containing synthetic chemicals that mimic natural estrogen and will migrate into the water, especially when exposed to sunlight and heat.
Discussion is now going on whether plastic even can make people fat - starting with disturbing metabolism in fetus and "programming" cells to become fat cells.
It's getting even worse:
In 2005 scientists in Spain reported that the more pesticides children were exposed to as fetuses, the greater their risk of being overweight as toddlers.

Lucky who has a garden with some beds for veggies and lettuce and a fountain with spring water.
All others have to fight for their well-being through their choice of purchase (which is a power all industries are afraid of <-- this is your power, too!) Money is the word.
It is up to us what we allow to get into our precious, God given body.
Next time in front of the beautifully (however not accidentally in this specific order) filled shelves with all the yummy yummy packs full of false promises, maybe this will help to resist:

Who has the chance to watch Spanish-French satirical comedian Louis de Funès in "The Wing and the Tigh" (1976), go watch it. It was an early (however funny) warning about what has become widely accepted and rarely questioned standard today.
