Activist Post: BPA Highly Present in Canned Foods Marketed to Children

Activist Post: BPA Highly Present in Canned Foods Marketed to Children: "During the early stages of life, proper hormonal balance is essential for adequate growth and development. Bisphenol A (BPA), an estrogen-mimicker, can offset the hormonal balance of your body leading to conditions such as cancer and early puberty. Therefore, it is quite disturbing that a new study conducted by the Breast Cancer Fund has found that BPA is highly present in 6 different canned foods marketed specifically towards children."

The 6 canned goods that the study identified, along with the measure of BPA contamination measured in parts per billion (ppb), are as follows:

  • Campbell’s Disney Princess Cool Shapes, Shaped pasta with Chicken in Chicken Broth – 114 ppb
  • Campbell’s Toy Story Fun Shapes, Shaped Pasta with Chicken in Chicken Broth – 81 ppb
  • Earth’s Best organic Elmo Noodlemania Soup USDA Organic – 38 ppb
  • Annie’s Homegrown Cheesy Ravioli USDA Organic 31 ppb
  • Chef Boyardee Whole Grain Pasta, Mini ABC’s & 123′s with Meatballs – 20 ppb
  • Campbell’s Spaghettios with Meatballs – 13 ppb
