Typical for grain based products / meals

FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food, so these are the closest foods it does test. Treat them as a rough guide.

Left out of the summary above: Inorganic arsenic, Perchlorate. FDA measured them in only some of these foods, so the result describes those foods, not the whole kind.

"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.
