Typical for frozen bread & dough
FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food, so these are the closest foods it does test. Treat them as a rough guide.
- Cadmium: typically 25.6 ppb (FDA, 57 samples, 2017-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 600 g (21 oz) a day; an adult at about 2.8 kg (6.2 lb).One serving (1 pc, 57.7 g, from the label):10% of a toddler's daily limit2% of an adult's daily limit
- Arsenic (total): typically 5.07 ppb (FDA, 57 samples, 2017-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
- Lead, Mercury: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.

- Lead in Pie crust: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 4 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Bread, white roll/bun (hamburger/hotdog): found in 27 of 27 samples, average 24.6, highest 37 ppb (2017-2020)

Left out of the summary above: Perchlorate. FDA measured it 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.
