Contaminants 1
Source: EWG
Glyphosate 7.1 ppb Moderate
Detected at a moderate level — a meaningful amount worth factoring in if this product is eaten regularly. Glyphosate is classified as a probable human carcinogen by IARC, and glyphosate-residue-free supply chains exist — so its presence reflects ingredient sourcing.
EWG 2022 testing detected glyphosate at 7.1 ppb — very low, but still detectable in a baby snack.
