There is no safe level of lead exposure, according to CDC.
One of the country's largest supermarket chains has issued a recall for baby food products sold in eight states due to elevated levels of lead, as announced by health officials on May 23, 2025. The affected baby food items, which include various purees and formulas, were distributed in California, Texas, Florida, New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Georgia. Health authorities have urged consumers to immediately stop using these products and return them to the store for a full refund. The recall was initiated after routine testing revealed lead levels exceeding the federal safety limits, prompting concerns over potential health risks to infants and young children. The supermarket chain has apologized for the incident and is cooperating fully with the investigation led by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
