Typical for wrapped snacks - nut bars
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 24.7 ppb (FDA, 6 samples, 2018-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 610 g (22 oz) a day; an adult at about 2.8 kg (6.2 lb).One serving (42 g, from the label):7% of a toddler's daily limit1% of an adult's daily limit
- Arsenic (total): typically 12.5 ppb (FDA, 6 samples, 2018-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
- Lead, Mercury: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
FDA samples behind these numbers
- Lead in Granola bar: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 4 ppb (2018-2020)
- Lead in Peanuts, dry roasted, salted: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 4 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Granola bar: found in 3 of 3 samples, average 8.47, highest 11 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Peanuts, dry roasted, salted: found in 3 of 3 samples, average 40.7, highest 45 ppb (2018-2020)
- Mercury in Granola bar: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
- Mercury in Peanuts, dry roasted, salted: found in 0 of 3 samples, all below 1 ppb (2018-2020)
- Arsenic (total) in Granola bar: found in 3 of 3 samples, average 21.7, highest 28 ppb (2018-2020)
- Arsenic (total) in Peanuts, dry roasted, salted: found in 2 of 3 samples, average 3.3, highest 5 ppb (2018-2020)
- Perchlorate in Peanuts, dry roasted, salted: found in 2 of 20 samples, average 0.15, highest 2 ppb (2008-2012)
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.
