We don't talk about fine dining here because spergs love nothing more than being upset by other people enjoying things.

It's not worth the time or energy. Just go out and enjoy things, come here for fastfood and shitpost threads.

Bruh. I caution you to not look too deep into any agricultural product.

Heavy metal accumulation happens across the board in most foods. So much so there are methods of cleaning soils with plants called phytoremediation.

If you want to be exceptionally anal about all the things you consume, look into soil map surveys world wide. Some countries' soils are naturally higher in heavy metal contamination.
Some countries still continue with the use of leaded gasoline.
All this adds up to plants with varying levels of heavy metal contam based on where they're from.

I work in chocolate. Cacao from west africa is high in lead because they continue to use leaded gasoline. I won't use cacao butter from there because of it.
South America has lower concentrations of heavy metals, but there's basically none without contamination.

It's good to consider this risk, but at the same time you've been eating these things all your life without second thought. Either way, you're gonna be good bro.
