😵CONTAMINATED WITH LEAD, says so on the package!!!
I have bought several organic powders from Starwest Botancals to store for emergencies.  I have kept them in their original mylar pouch.  Today I started repackaging them with oxygen absorbers to keep them fresh longer hopefully.<br />I am terribly dismayed to discover a WARNING on the label of the powdered SPINACH!!!  It says CONSUMING THIS PRODUCT CAN EXPOSE YOU TO LEAD.<br />THIS WAS NOT ON THE LABEL WHEN I ORDERED IT.  It is not shown on the label now.  At first I thought that it was a result of grinding the powder but it is not on any other powders I have such as cinnamon and ginger.<br />WHAT THE HECK!!!  How can it pass ORGANIC testing if it has LEAD in it?????<br />I am going to question Starwest Botanicals if I can find a way to contact them.  Not sure if I will ever purchase from them again.  They do not provide any nutritional information on their packaging nor do they provide any contact information.<br />BTW the package does say it comes from CHINA!
