Typical levels

FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food; these are the closest foods it does test.

Cadmium: typically 7.35 ppb (FDA, 12 samples, 2018-2020). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 2 kg (4.4 lb) a day; an adult at about 9.5 kg (21 lb).
One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):
5% of a toddler's daily limit
1% of a adult's daily limit
Perchlorate: typically 1.5 ppb (FDA, 80 samples, 2008-2012). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 4.4 kg (9.7 lb) a day; an adult at about 21 kg (46 lb).
One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):
2% of a toddler's daily limit
under 1% of a adult's daily limit
Lead, Mercury, Arsenic (total): usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.

"Typically" is FDA's middle sample. Daily amounts use the long-run average and each chemical's daily limit (EPA reference dose, or FDA's level for lead) for a 33-lb toddler and a 154-lb adult. ppb = micrograms per kilogram of food. Source: FDA Total Diet Study.
