Great question. I wasn't aware that it may contain lead. I'll be getting rid of it if that's true.

I was not aware the product contained lead! Will have to check into it further...

As far as I know there's no lead, it's cosmetic grade. I made homemade sunscreen from pinterest recipe & so far I love it.

It is NOT lead free. In product details you can read: Proposition 65 warning!

There was no mention of lead or cadmium on the packaging and one other Norpro garlic baker states no lead or cadmium in their terra cotta. You could probably contact Norpro and ask them.

They're made in Waterbury, CT. I'm not sure if they contain lead and cadmium but I'm able to microwave them without the pieces becoming too hot to handle. They're very durable. I've knocked them together many times with no chipping or cracking. I love them.

The only information I found was on squidoo.com that said that all of their dinnerware meets the FDA Standards for lead and calcium(?) releases, so it's "perfectly safe". I assume that implies they are not 100% lead and cadmium free, but are minimal. Personally, I'm really happy with them. I ordered them in 4 different colors. Hope that hellps.

I just googled butterbell.com, says made in China, with no lead or cadmium. Not sure I believe that. Dang, wish I had known that before I bought it!

The only ingredients listed in there are the coffee bean extracts and vegetable capsules, there is no added sodium to it. The coffee bean itself has some minerals which has sodium, but probably such a small amount.

I assume it is lead free as i use it every day, for definite answer, check with manufacture. I do not think it would contain any lead as no body would buy it, if there is any health risk involved.

I just live chatted with Kitchen Aid and they said that the ceramic pot has tested lead and cadmium "free" and that the product does *not* require a california prop 65 warning. I think that's as close as one can get to being certain that it's lead free before purchasing and testing yourself.

All raw turmeric is going to contain lead at some very small level (ie: parts per million) - the question should be, is there an unsafe amount? Starwest tests for heavy metals (you can see it listed here under laboratory analysis - http://www.starwest-botanicals.com/quality-control.html), so you should be fine, but I bet you can get more detailed information by contacting them directly.

I just became aware that lead is a problem in these crocks. I just had mine tested with an XRF gun and the result was 28ppm. I believe that is not a safe level... I'm sending mine back. I don't know if it came with a prop 65 warning b/c I already threw away all of the packaging.

I can't answer that. Obviously it does not say it contains lead because that would be illegal. We've been drinking it non-religiously for 3 years or so and I have not succumb to lead poisoning. Are you worried about the arsenic content of rice? There are toxins in everything, take care of your liver and you should be fine. Look up studies on toxin contents of the deceased, both rich and poor are full of toxins when they die, they are just different ones from eating fresh fish (mercury) to heavy metals from canned foods. This stuff is a good, hypo allergenic protein powder. New car, new carpet, new things in general are way more toxic than rice. I can't answer that.

I believe they are made in England. Not sure about cadmium, but they should be lead free. I like mine very much.
