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.

Dang, I should have read your comment before I commented. I said the same thing as you did, but after you did. Reee! Anyway, your'e right. The cacao plant is a hyperaccumulator of heavy metals too, so that doesn't help when we're chemtrailing fly ash and other toxic crap into our skies and it lands on cacao plantations
If I remember right most of the cacao farms are in Africa which isn't exactly known for emphasizing health. Probably there because the labor is cheapest while having the right climate.
