Typical for other snacks

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 36.3 ppb (FDA, 12 samples, 2018-2020). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 340 g (12 oz) a day; an adult at about 1.6 kg (3.5 lb).
One serving (1/2 cup, 30 g, from the label):
9% of a toddler's daily limit
2% of an adult's daily limit
Lead, Mercury, Arsenic (total), Perchlorate: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
