All brands of chocolate have toxic levels of lead and cadmium. The plant absorbs those heavy metals from the soil. Granted Hershey's is worse than others.

Very interesting. Thank you for posting. I did not know this.
Chocolove brand tended to have better numbers in dark chocolate from what I remember. That tends to be sold at more mid to higher end grocery stores.
The darker the chocolate, the more lead and cadmium tends to be in the bars
It makes sense. And is sad. Sigh.
