"Consumer Reports Petitions USDA to Remove Lunchables from School Menus"

Consumer Reports has petitioned the USDA to remove Lunchables from school cafeterias due to high sodium levels and the presence of harmful chemicals such as lead, cadmium, and phthalates. The watchdog group found that the school versions of Lunchables contain even higher levels of sodium than those sold in stores, and also detected lead, cadmium, or both in all tested ready-to-eat meal kits. Additionally, concerns were raised about the presence of additives and preservatives in Lunchables.
