Is it from 'slop' in the manufacturing process? Are these metals somehow inherent in the food chain?
Correct me if I am wrong, but from what I understand, something like a baby food jar of carrots is basically carrots. They take carrots, boil them until they are soft, mash them, package them, and sell them.
Is the metal content somehow in the carrots themselves because it was in the soil? Is it from pesticides or fertilizer? Is the metal somehow introduced during the production process?

HOW does the metal content get into the product?
