Updated: August 2025
Section #1) Boulder Canyon Potato Chips
Laboratory Testing & Context:

The chart above shows where the Boulder Canyon Avocado Oil Classic Sea Salt Potato Chips (Canyon Cut) fall related to nine other “U.S.A. Made” potato chip products we have tested to date through the Lead Safe Mama, LLC Community Collaborative Laboratory Testing Initiative. Laboratory test results for ten potato chip products and one raw potato are included in the chart.

All of the products listed in this chart tested positive for an unsafe level of Cadmium (unsafe for consumption by children, please read more about the “Action Level” considerations below). While the scientific and medical community consensus is clear that  it is unsafe to consume Cadmium-contaminated foods, the level of toxic heavy metals found in these popular snack products are not currently considered to be illegal by any regulatory body (U,S. or Foreign).

• Of the lab test results shown for snack chip products in the above chart, the Boulder Canyon Avocado Oil Classic Sea Salt Potato Chips have the second-highest Cadmium level when compared to all the potato chips we have tested and reported on to date (second only to  Classic Lay’s Potato Chips)
• When we first began this community-collaborative laboratory testing initiative (back in March of 2024) we had hypothesized  that this particular flavor of this brand of potato chips (Boulder Canyon, cooked in Avocado Oil) might test positive for a lower level of Cadmium than other, similar products, because this product is made with avocado oil and not sunflower seed oil (or other seed oils) — and because they are marketed and sold as a more “natural” / “healthier” choice.
• Our logic was that chip products made with Avocado oil specifically might test positive for lower levels of Cadmium than those made with Sunflower Oil (or other seed oils), as Sunflower seed-derived products have been repeatedly demonstrated (via multiple scientific studies) to be Cadmium-contaminated.
• Since first publishing this article we have learned that the Cadmium contamination in the protein / meal  of Sunflower Seeds (while significant and often present at quite dangerous levels, especially for consumption by children – see this example) is rarely transferred in comparable amounts to Sunflower seed oils (here’s a link to one  research paper, with some industry bias noted)
• The independent, third-party laboratory testing coordinated by Lead Safe Mama, LLC on this product did not support the hypothesis that “natural” chips made with Avocado oil would test positive for lower levels of Cadmium than similar chips made with other types of oils, including seed oils.
• Our findings instead support the concern that all potato products (both organic and conventionally grown) are contaminated with concerning levels of Cadmium, regardless of the type of oil used.

Cadmium causes cancer. As Cadmium is a known carcinogen (and has been classified as a carcinogen for more than three decades), the pervasiveness of Cadmium contamination in one of the most popular snack options in the United States and abroad (potato chips) is quite disturbing in light of the recent (August 2024) study demonstrating an increase in 17 specific types of cancer in younger generations (Gen X and younger) – with many of these cancers specifically linked to dietary considerations (link here with more info).

Lead Safe Mama, LLC recommends avoiding packaged, processed (factory-made) chip products (and especially avoid any and all potato chip products) until we can further investigate and identify the parameters of this issue. Given we have expanded the scope of the Lead Safe Mama, LLC Community-Collaborative Laboratory Testing Initiative since this article was originally published, we also recommend avoiding all potatoes  (conventional and organic – prepared in any way: boiled, baked, french fries, chips, etc.) in the United States and Ireland, as the Cadmium-contamination of potato crops (both conventional and organic potatoes) seems to be fairly pervasive.

Since we published this article we have learned that Cadmium-contamination of ground crops (at least in Ireland and the United States) is likely from the use of Phosphate Rock fertilizer (or fertilizers derived from Phosphate Rock). These fertilizers can be heavily Cadmium-contaminated and are legally allowed for both organic and conventional crops and can therefore cause significant Cadmium-contamination of the soil where these crops are grown. Here’s some additional science in support of this concern (please do note there is some bias in each of these studies / statements):

1. 2025 June Article – Food Times – Australia
   • Note Bias: emphasis on France & on conventional agriculture – when issue appears to be global and includes organic agriculture in the United States.
   • Statement #1: “Phosphate fertilizers and cadmium exposure risks present serious public health threats, including increased risks of tumors, DNA damage, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), in France and beyond.”
   • Statement #2: “Chronic cadmium exposure, largely linked to phosphate fertilizer use in conventional agriculture, elevates the risks of cancers (lung, prostate, pancreas, liver, kidney), DNA damage, renal insufficiency, osteoporosis, spontaneous fractures, reproductive disorders, and cardiovascular disease”
2. 2024, August: Scientific Study – China
   • Note Industry Bias: advocating Phosphate fertilizer use (de-emphasizing the fact that the Cadmium contamination is coming from the Phosphate), however concluding statement is still damning: “excessive application of soluble PFs decreases pH, increases Cd mobility, and poses health risks, suggesting a need for balanced fertilizer use”
3. 2022, December: Scientific Opinion Paper – EU
   • “Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal that accumulates in soil and in living organisms and causes severe and permanent damage. Its presence in the soil depends largely on the use of phosphate fertilizers. Phosphorite and apatite rocks used in phosphate fertilizers production contain several other minerals, including Cd.”

Food crops that we have found (through the Lead Safe Mama, LLC Community Collaborative Laboratory Testing Initiative) to consistently test positive for significant / concerning levels of Cadmium have been 1) Potatoes (chart above, links to all lab reports in next section), 2. Strawberries (1), 3. Sunflower Seeds (1, 2), 4. Peanuts (1, 2, 3), 5. Cinnamon (1), and 6. Chocolate / Cocoa Powder (1, 2, 3, 4,).

Since we originally published these findings (the lab reports for these and other potato chips), we also tested several oils to evaluate the degree to which the oils may be imparting Cadmium-contamination to the potato chips (and to evaluate if certain types of oils are less contaminated than others). You can find our oil testing on this landing page (in the “Fats, Oils, & Vinegars” section, Section #23). To reiterate: based on the tested we have done to date it appears that the type of oil  (Avodcado Oil, Seed Oil, Tallow, Olive Oil, etc.) is not an influence on the level of Cadmium-contamination in potato chips. Cadmium contamination of snack chips appears to be related to the primary food ingredient (in this case the potatoes), not the oil.

Section #5) Important Background: What is an “Action Level”?

Please note the following key points:

The full original lab report for this product is below (at the bottom of this page).

The graphic above shows the levels of metals detected in this product (in red) along with the low threshold of detection (in green) for each metal not detected with the laboratory testing Lead Safe Mama, LLC completed for this product. The numbers are juxtaposed (in blue) to the “Action Level” proposed by the medical and scientific community in 2021 as part of the Baby Food Safety Act.

• These 2021 levels were proposed as “Action Levels” because they are (in fact) protective of human health.
• An “Action Level” is NOT the same as a “Maximum Allowable Level.”
  • Many food manufacturers misinterpret guidance on heavy metals to mean “allowable levels” and consider it reasonable for products to test positive below these levels.
  • This is a (perhaps intentional?) misunderstanding/ misinterpretation the food industry makes — a misunderstanding which food manufacturers use to justify the presence of heavy metals in their products.
• There is no safe level of Lead and Cadmium exposure for children
• Heavy Metals bioaccumulate in the body.
  • Lead bio-mimics Calcium in all biological structures.
  • If Lead is present, the human body stores it in Calcium-dense biological structures (the brain, bones, organs, teeth, etc.) in place of Calcium.
  • Nearly all the Lead you have been exposed to in your life is still stored in your body. You can learn more about this by watching our documentary film on childhood Lead poisoning — linked here.
  • It is the cumulative impact of heavy metal exposure (over a lifetime) that makes even small/ incidental/ seemingly trivial exposures particularly damaging and dangerous. You can read more about that here.
• Once a food product has the amount of heavy metal (Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, or Arsenic) noted (above) as the “Action Level,” that food product is officially considered (by the scientific and medical community) unsafe for consumption by children as toxicants (found at-or-above these levels) are in the range of heavy metal levels that have been demonstrated to cause lasting harm.
• Action Levels are not related to serving size.
  • Action Levels are relevant for any amount of a food product that may be consumed (any quantity of the food in question).
  • PPB (parts per billion/ ppb) measurements are a percentage (albeit a very small percentage) and apply to any quantity of the food product tested.
  • For more discussion about serving size considerations (and why relying on “serving size” to limit toxicant exposure is not a relevant metric/ not a metric protective of human health), read this article.
• These “Action Levels” proposed in 2021 are the levels at which the scientific and medical community believe the manufacturer (or government) needs to take ACTION to fix the problem.
  • One “Action” would be for the manufacturer to take steps toward reducing the levels of toxicants in the food product.
  • Another “Action” would be for the manufacturer to cease product sales until the product could be made safe.
  • Another “Action” would be for the manufacturer to inform the public that a specific food product has an unsafe level of the metal detected at-or-above the “Action Level” — making a highly-visible public announcement regarding which relevant batches of the product should be recalled and not consumed.
• The Action Levels proposed within the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 were not arbitrary toxicant levels — they were proposed because they are the levels most protective of human health. The Baby Food Safety Act of 2021, however, was not passed into law.
• Regardless of the fact the Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 never passed into law — and it is therefore legal to have food for children test positive for Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, and Arsenic at-or-above these levels — these Action Levels still reflect the current (modern/ relevant) advice of the medical and scientific communities as levels both achievable by the industry and safeguards of infant and toddler health.
• Food industry lobbyists fought back against formalizing these proposed “Action Levels” as a government standard, alleging they were unachievable.
  • The image below links to a landing page with all the food products we have already tested this year (2024), which have been “non-detect” for toxicants with low thresholds of detection (for Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, and Arsenic) far below the 2021 proposed Action Levels.
  • These food products (about 10% of the foods Lead Safe Mama, LLC has tested and reported on so far since March of 2024 when we started laboratory testing foods) clearly demonstrate these Action Levels as achievable across a range of food types (salt, flour, coffee, oatmeal, chia seeds, and a soda product — plus we are always adding more).
• The legitimacy of these levels as “Action Levels”/ “Levels of Concern” (even though they were not adopted as law) is further mirrored by the legitimacy of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ level of concern for Lead in water, which is 1 ppb even though the FDA’s official “level of concern” for Lead in water is 15 ppb (you can read more about that here).

Section #6)
“I have been feeding this to my child! How can I ‘detox’ them/ what can I do?”

• Please note: Lead Safe Mama, LLC and Tamara Rubin are not healthcare providers/ medical practitioners and do not represent themselves as so. Instead, we share scientific findings from the greater global scientific community and ask that you evaluate those on their merits, discussing any medical decisions with your child’s doctor.
• With the above disclaimer noted, if your child has been eating this product (or any other confirmed or suspected heavy metals-contaminated foods) and they can tolerate garlic, you may want to consider increasing their garlic consumption.
  • Roasted garlic spread on toast
  • Garlic on pizza
  • Garlic on pasta
  • Garlic in green smoothies
  • Chopped garlic on veggies
• Most “detox” products and potions on the market simply do not work (they are snake oil products designed to separate desperate parents from their hard earned cash). Some detox products are also heavily Lead-contaminated and may result in a child being Lead-poisoned.
  • Please stay away from these types of detox products (any packaged/ manufactured “detox” product sold by a company).
• Science has repeatedly demonstrated (in multiple scientific studies from around the globe) that simply increasing the consumption of garlic (in any form, cooked or raw) to help with the elimination/ excretion of heavy metals (and specifically Lead) can be significantly beneficial after an exposure (read more about that here).
• Blueberries have also been scientifically demonstrated as a helpful “natural detox” (when my children were babies I used to serve them frozen organic blueberries with a little bit of cream [or soy milk] drizzled over the top, which then freezes and turns it into an “ice cream”-like treat)!
• It is also always prudent to ask your doctor about getting a heavy metals panel (blood or urine) for anyone who has been eating contaminated foods – especially if you have not had one recently as a baseline.
  • This article discusses blood Lead testing
  • This article discusses urine and hair testing

Please scroll down to see the full lab report for the Boulder Canyon Avocado Oil Potato Chip product pictured above.

Please do check out the other links on this page for additional information about the truly independent, third-party, laboratory testing we are conducting on food products and other ingested items (including supplements and vitamins).

As there are almost no reasonable safety thresholds proposed for toxicants (heavy metals) consumed by adults (in foods and supplements), our focus is (as always) on the health of children.
