Description
Testing released by the nonprofit Consumer Reports has found elevated amounts of sodium, as well as relatively high levels of lead and cadmium, in Lunchables meal kits. The advocacy group is now urging the USDA to drop Lunchables from the National School Lunch Program, which feeds millions of students in the U.S.
Consumer Reports is a nonprofit that does research into consumer products to test for safety and performance.
In a new report on Lunchables, released Tuesday, the group says they found that the Lunchables given to students in schools have a higher amount of sodium than the versions available on store shelves.
