Contains 25 times more lead than the warnings require.
I was horrified to see a tiny proposition 65 warning on the box. When I looked it up on their web page it said it was warning against mercury.....which i know is in all sea food but in oysters in not very high, so I was going to basically blow it off, but wrote to them anyway to ask specifically about it, and was told by them that they contain lead! Ugggg. Who wants to eat oysters full of lead? They actually sent me a graph explaining that there is 24 times more lead in their oysters than the warning on their package requires. Further explanation from them revealed that the lead comes from growing them in heavily polluted waters. Don’t buy these unless you don’t mind loosing your IQ! I would not even feed the rest to my dogs.
