Guidelines from the Food and Drug Administration provide an interim reference level (IRL) for lead of 2.2 micrograms. The amount of lead found in these nuggets could be as much as five times higher than this IRL for children.
A recall was not requested because the products are no longer available for purchase. However, FSIS is concerned that some product may still be in consumers’ freezers.
You ate them already. Sorry.

That’s so America lol
It’s really one of the most America things I’ve ever read. I’m fortunate to live in a city in the US, so have no issue avoiding Walmart like the plague, but most of rural America probably bought these nuggets and dropped their kids’ IQs even further
You forgot the “un” in “unfortunate”. Guess you ate the nuggets allready.
ahhh, here are your meat shaped patties of ground flesh, with a side of corn syrup, just as you ordered. Now gobble up your glyphosate, like a good little patriot
No one can convince me that the combination of lead in gasoline AND the car depend infrastructure of the US is not at least a factor in the world we have today. I really think it’s contributed to the boomer brain and to an extent the Gen X brain to a large degree.
This isn’t to say it’s not the only cause. The main factor still being capitalism rewarding psycho behavior combined with it has definitely brought us to a really really bad place.
Preach it, brother. Americans (and the collective west) got shafted hard with the raw end of the sick when it came to capitalism and its propensity to ignore health and safety, all in the name of profits for the Epstein class.
Food safety has never been one of our strong points.
Hell, people probably ate healthier in the past.
America has serious problems across the board, not just food.
Think it’ll be this year, or '27, when the average life expectancy actually starts to drop?
Neither. They will drop “preventable” deaths from the stat to keep the number high. It’s the same thing they’ve been doing with the unemployment figures.
Ah, that makes sense!
Yeah, I am… much more familiar with how they fuck with the econ stats… would you believe I am a, not unemployed, but ‘out of the labor force’ econometrician?
I’ve been trying to point out the BS going on with econ stats for almost two decades now, and … well I am now one of the statistics.
Look at it this way; if they told the truth, the economy would probably collapse. The stock market is everything, and the stock market is held up by lies and cons.
