My informational graphic responding to the chocolate manufacturers’ misinformation campaign — the Lead-in-chocolate controversy
The COMPLETE (ridiculous, greenwashed) statement published by HU on their website today (12/22/22). Stand by for my full response.
Last night (just before bed) I learned that my most-significantly-Lead-poisoned child (Avi) has been buying (& eating) HU Dark Chocolate. I’m furious.
Here’s the #BS GREENWASHING response that HU Chocolate is sharing with concerned customers. I will publish my response to this shortly.
#AskTamara: Which dishes are Lead-free? Pioneer Woman? Wedgwood? Franciscan? Blue Willow? Fiestaware? Heath?
#AskTamara: Which mugs are Lead-free? How can I tell if my mug has unsafe levels of Lead? Which mugs do you use?
WHY IS THIS NOT ILLEGAL?! Jervis & George glass sippy cup jar: 6,422 ppm Lead (90 is unsafe for kids) + 88 Cadmium

#AskTamara: This one is for the kids! Q. “Hey Mom! What’s a penny made of?”… XRF test results for a 1976 U.S.A. penny

#AskTamara: How can I test my water for Lead? How do I test the water in my home? How do I test the water in my kids’ school?
