Hi friends!
–
I thought y’all would find this comparison interesting (please take a look at the chart at the top of the page here). This chart includes the toxicant profiles for three UK purchased milk chocolate bars (Cadbury brand) compared to a USA purchased milk chocolate bar (Hershey’s brand). The links to the articles with the full original lab report for each of the products pictured in the chart above are below (scroll down). The three Cadbury products were all sent to the laboratory for testing in 2025. The Hershey Bars were lab tested in 2024.

Thank you also for sharing this information in your communities.

The Cadbury testing and reporting was not fully funded. Here are the links to support the testing and reporting of those products if you are in a position to make a contribution and would like to support our work in this way (we are a community-collaborative organization, but we are not a 501(c)3* — so your contributions are very much appreciated, but they are not tax-deductible gifts). Thank you!

For those of you not on Patreon (seeing this note in our Newsletter instead), we also published two more new articles with lab reports (in addition to the new Cadbury reports) last night:

*501(c)3 nonprofit organizations are too vulnerable to corporate attacks (which we often get in response to our independent, third-party testing) — so the 501(c)3 business model does not work well for the work of Lead Safe Mama, LLC. While we are not a 501(c)3 we operate very much like a nonprofit — as we rely on both community participation in our work AND on community financial support of our work. Thank you!

Reminder: Please don’t forget to check out the offerings of our sponsors. Our two corporate partners have played a significant role in helping us to bridge the gap in funding for our work in 2025. Thank you to them and thank you to all of you for taking a moment to check out their products. If you want to see test results for examples of products from each of these companies you can find them on our website as well (just put the company name in the search bar at the top of any page of the website!)
