Stacy's Simply Naked Pita Chips
Summary
Stacy's Simply Naked Pita Chips scores 1/100. Food Democracy Now / The Detox Project 2016 testing (Anresco Laboratories) detected glyphosate at 812 ppb — among the highest levels in the cracker/chip category. Marketed as 'simply naked,' but the deck leads with refined enriched wheat flour and seed oils, and the product is owned by Frito-Lay (PepsiCo).

Glyphosate 812 ppb High
Detected at a high level — at or above health-based benchmarks such as EWG's 160 ppb children's-health benchmark. Regular exposure at this level is a genuine health concern. Glyphosate is classified as a probable human carcinogen by IARC, and glyphosate-residue-free supply chains exist — so its presence reflects ingredient sourcing.
