Bringing trust back to the pantry.

By the numbers

• •95% of baby foods tested contained detectable heavy metals, including lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury (Healthy Babies Bright Futures, 2019; cited by U.S. Congress in FDA oversight calls).
• •A 2025 global review found more than 60% of infant formulas and baby foods worldwide contained detectable cadmium, lead, and arsenic, with mercury present in over 30%.
• •83% of foods tested by Consumer Reports contained more lead than the recommended public-health limit.

By the numbers

• •Consumer Reports found 71% of dark chocolate bars tested exceeded California's safety thresholds for lead, cadmium, or both (2022–2023 testing).
• •A broader test across chocolate categories found roughly one in three products contained concerning heavy metal levels.
• •23 of 28 dark chocolate bars in one round of testing exceeded daily safety limits for lead and/or cadmium.

By the numbers

• •Independent lab testing has repeatedly found that products labeled '100% avocado oil' contain significant amounts of other, undisclosed oils.
• •Herbs and spices, a category with minimal routine testing, have been found in independent lab reports to contain detectable heavy metals including lead.
• •None of this required a product to break the law. Most contamination falls into regulatory gaps rather than clear violations, which is exactly why label-reading alone can't catch it.
