Heavy Metals (Lead & #Cadmium) found in Several Easter-Candies (These Brands of Dark Chocolate)

USA TODAY analyzed some research from CONSUMER REPORTS, and their analysis is linked through the bold text below.

The word “Cadmium”--built on ancient words that mean "Cadmus (Kadmos, legendary founder of Boeotion Thebes)" with the metallic element ending -ium--was named after #Cadmia, ancient naturalists' name for various earths & oxides (especially Zinc Carbonate).

To Keep Up on My 'Research,'


Along with a wealth of explanation, USA TODAY reports 'the safe dark chocolates' (Mast, Taza Chocolate, Ghirardelli, Valrhona) and 'the not-so-safe dark chocolates (Trader Joe's, Theo, Lily's, Green & Blacks). 

Of course, it's possible that those have changed; so go to CONSUMER REPORTS for the latest developments.
