Heavy Metals in your Chocolate: The Best & Worst Brands


The California Proposition 65 standard is not a safety standard, but a labelling standard.  The FDA allows higher levels of heavy metal contamination.

I can no longer find the Sam's Choice brand of dark chocolate.  The 72%, which according to the video has too much cadmium, shows up on the Walmart site, but it is out of stock.

Walmart has replaced the Sam's Choice brand with their "Better Goods" brand.  I was buying this, because it is about a dollar cheaper, but I can't find any information about its heavy metal content.

According to the video, if I wanted to play it safe, I would buy the Giradelli 86%.
