Yes EVA plastic should be safe/non-toxic

Most plastics could be marketed as "mold resistance" due to their low water absorption/cross linking,etc... which would make it more resistant to mold growth vs other materials.
Even if it did have an additive added in during resin manufacturing those are typically bonded/linked to the resin and are proven/tested to not leach from the plastic.
