Customer reviews for Gerber Rice Cereal, 8 OZ

We recognize the topic of heavy metals and baby food may be confusing or sound scary at times. We take the responsibility of feeding babies very seriously. Please know we do not add heavy metals to baby food. Heavy metals are commonly found in the environment, including in soil and water, and can be absorbed by certain fruits, vegetables, and grains in trace amounts as they grow. This is true whether you use homemade or packaged foods. As the leading baby food maker in the U.S., we have robust standards for quality and safety that meet and are often stricter than those set by the FDA, and we promise to deliver nutritious and safe food for your baby. For years, Gerber has taken proactive steps to minimize their presence in the ingredients we use, including regularly testing for more than 500 toxins and contaminants and implementing more than 100 individual quality checks before a product can be sold. We invite you to learn more about our commitment to quality at gerber.com/commitment-to-quality; you can even view heavy metals results by product batch on Gerber.com or simply scan the product’s QR code, which can be found on the label. If you would like to speak with one of our Registered Dietitians to discuss your concerns, give us a call at 1-800-4-GERBER (1-800-443-7237) when you have a few free minutes. Call anytime day or night, we are always here and will be happy to get you in touch with one of them.

Regards,

Gerber®
