Why do I need to know about Prop 65?
This statement is legal text required by a California law called “Proposition 65.” Prop 65 warnings can be found on the packaging of many products you buy, from protein powders and snacks to jeans and gardening supplies. Prop 65 applies to over 900 different man-made and naturally occurring chemicals; their "safe use" thresholds are only recognized in California.
Okay got it. So, what exactly is Prop 65?
Proposition 65 is a California “right to know” law that requires companies to tell consumers if their products, including food, contain or cause an exposure to one or more of the chemicals on the State’s list.
With that in mind, our cassava flour is an organically grown, natural product and sometimes contains heavy metals found naturally in the soil. The levels remain 25x less than the federal guidelines for food safety. Please know our pizza bites have gone through rigorous food safety testing; however, out of extreme caution, we have included the Prop 65 language for our CA consumers.
