Study finds many cooking spices in stores are laden with heavy metals
(BDN) -- Spices might be bringing more than flavor to your cooking. New research shows that popular spice brands contain concerning levels of toxic heavy metals. Consumer Reports, a nonprofit organization dedicated to independent product testing and consumer advocacy, released a study testing the levels of heavy metals in 15 types of dried herbs and spices — 126 products in all — from national brands such as Walmart’s Great Value, McCormick, Morton & Bassett and Trader Joe’s.
