Shared first on social media, see four images with the following text below:

“@waytohealthkitchen Fyi — four images. Plus here’s the link to my film again: https://youtu.be/lMbhbwMhs1U?si=jRSwxbRgA8f24o70 – The film is also linked in my Instagram bio. NOTE: We spent about an hour looking for a statement on the website of this chocolate manufacturer (and with general searches) for any statement from this brand noting that their products are free of Lead and Cadmium (assuming that @waytohealthkitchen must have gotten that misinformation directly from the company at some point in time). We could not find any statements from the company with this messaging. If you can find it for us (if such a statement exists? possibly in their social media history or elsewhere?) please take a screenshot and share it with us. Thank you!”
