is the clay pot lead and cadmium free?
1520469
The FAQ on the Vita Clay Website says that the pot was tested in an independent lab for lead contamination and they obtained the result 99.99% lead free, It says also that the pot could be actually 100% lead free (as the lab does not measure this level of accuracy). There is no mention to cadmium free but inquiries to Vita Clay customer Service could clarify this issue.

It comes from China. Who can say? Remember dog food and powdered milk for infants? They said they were fine until they weren't. I have personal suspicions about this company.

See http://vitaclaychef.com/faq There is a question asking if the pots contain lead. The answer from this faq is that the cooker was tested to 99.99% lead-free. The lab could not measures to 100% lead-free. They didn't mention anything about cadmium-free.

Good question! The paint used in this and jut about all tableware is lead-free. In addition to federal restrictions, most states do not allow the sale of any "tableware", or other "food containers" to contain lead.

From their website: "DO VITACLAY ® POTS CONTAIN ANY LEAD?Our pots have been tested by an independent laboratory for lead contamination. This lab, like most others, can detect lead up to 0.01% or 100 parts per million (the same standard applied to children's toys). When testing our clay pot, the lab concluded that our pot is at least 99.99% lead-free. In other words, our pots may actually be 100% lead-free but the lab can't measure them to this level of accuracy.We've long believed our pots are in fact 100% lead-free, but we cannot make this claim for legal reasons."I don't know where it was made and I seem to have misplaced the booklet that came with it, so I can't look to see.

I highly doubt it has lead in it. I know it is pfoa free and cadmium free. We use these pans a lot and love them.

We bought the Cuisinart 10" saute pan 8 or 10 months ago, but I do think I read from the info that came with the pan that they claimed the coating was lead and cadmium free. Really like this pan -- it is "non-stick" if you season it and treat it right.

Oh golly, I'm sorry, I have no idea about the lead. I would assume it's lead free, but that's just my guess. I really enjoy mine.

Hi, Yes it is lead-free, and what a wonderful rice cooker. I broke the lid not long after purching it, but it still cooks the rice excellently. Just follow the strage to me, instructions - lol

Technically it is hard to claim completely "lead free". As any raw material in the world would have some degree of contamination. Unlike crystal, Pyrex should have less than 0.1 part per million (or 1 in 10 million) of lead. And that minuscule part is just something technically there. So there should be no worry about lead. However, consumers should focus more on the lid to make sure it is BPA free, especially many consumers microwave food with the lid on.

It says they are made from earthenware, so I am pretty sure there is no lead in clay. The paint should be lead free I trust, as these canisters are made for food storage. I trust the manufacturer that these containers are safe to use for food.

I don't know. Possibly. I don't think the package says lead free. Ask the manufacturer.

Their web site states that it is lead free. I hope that helps. This has been the easiest cleaning ever. AND its healthy :-)

The crock is certainly lead and cadmium free. The glaze is applied to both the exterior and interior of the crock.

Melissa, I don't really know. I can't say 100% for sure it doesn't, but I believe it is lead-free.
