Official on-topic news: HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU AREN'T WEARING DANDELION MILK?
Dandelion milk contains latex, as does bicycle clothing.


Nope. Bicycle clothing is made from Lycra or Spandex, which are at
least 85% polyurethane. Latex is made from rubber. It can be molded
using liquid latex, or sewn, glued, or ultrasonically welded using
sheet Latex material.

I think you mean Buna-N, nitrile rubber, acrylonitrile butadiene, or
NBR.
