What I will do is research Healthy Florida first... see who funds it, who sponsors their pages or their work, if they have a list of CEO's or who's on staff and look at their bios to see what they believe or where they. have worked before, in case they have a bias. what else the say about food or whatever they research. How they do their research... if they get a wide range of, let's say jolly ranchers, that are distributed everywhere around the world? Or just in Florida? Or just in the US? After I exhaust Healthy Florida First, if I feel confident in their abilities, I will then research different types of arsenic. Is it created by a chemical reaction? Is the arsenic created deadly, benign, cancer causing, or what? Once I find enough information about arsenic from what seems to be unbiased sources... they don't buy/sell anything that the info will benefit from, they aren't a government agency (usually, sometimes I use them, but anymore I don't!), in food stuff, I like the smaller nutritionists or healing nutritionists, instead of a big corporation or influencer. Influencers have a lot to sell too. Again, I check bios, check out the people listed as working for them or heading the company, and whether there is conflicting information with other sites. I usually also read through the site to see if I can get a temperature for their leanings that can cloud their research.

After I research both of those, and if I feel comfortable moving on, I will then look at each candy type, the ingredients, and see how the arsenic was made or how it got in. Any responses from the companies regarding this accusation? I will also look at each company, where they manufacture, if there's different ingredients from different facilities or countries... plus their CEO's, their past press releases on similar things...

Anyhow, I just get obsessed. Especially when it comes to food. So much wrong info, and I spend way too much time poking around to see what's going on!!

This is just a synopsis of what I do. I could go into more detail, but it's ridiculous what I do when I get on a bunny trail like this!
