Before you dig into tonight’s haul 🎃
In January 2026, Florida’s Department of Health tested 46 popular candies from 10 companies and reported arsenic in 28 of them.
Some of their estimated yearly limits: about 4 Twizzlers Strawberry, about 8 Swedish Fish, and less than 3 small Kit Kat pieces. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Hershey’s Milk Chocolate were listed “risk not identified.”
The candy industry disputes how the testing was done, so read the report yourself (link in bio) and make your own call.
Read the report. Read the label. Because what you consume matters.
