What FDA found when it bought and tested this kind of food across the US. These are not tests of this product.
- Cadmium: typically 2.15 ppb (FDA, 6 samples, 2018-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 6.1 kg (13 lb) a day; an adult at about 29 kg (64 lb).One serving (1 bowl, 113 g, from the label):2% of a toddler's daily limitunder 1% of an adult's daily limit
- Lead, Mercury, Arsenic (total): usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
FDA samples behind these numbers
- Lead in Gelatin dessert, strawberry: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 4 ppb (2018-2020)
- Lead in Pudding, ready-to-eat, chocolate: found in 1 of 3 samples, average 1.43, highest 4.3 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Gelatin dessert, strawberry: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Pudding, ready-to-eat, chocolate: found in 3 of 3 samples, average 4.87, highest 6.4 ppb (2018-2020)

"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.
