Letter from Consumer Reports and Unleaded Kids to the California Attorney General and the Department of Public Health calling on them to investigate whether some baby food brands may not be complying with a state law requiring companies to test their products for toxic heavy metals and make that information publicly available on their websites.
CR and Unleaded Kids published a report finding that, while some baby food companies provide straightforward access to test results, many create barriers like requiring lot codes or other specific product information that make it difficult for parents to access the data and compare products.
