For general reference, background levels of arsenic in soil in Louisiana are 700 ppb

I used to have a serious sweet tooth... nearly all those candies. Bags and bags of them back when I had a metabolism and could eat what I wanted.
Surprised I'm not dead.

No Ghirardelli dark chocolate caramels on the list, I'm safe.

700 ppb is 0.7 ppm. Don't eat dirt. Sucking crawfish heads might be the biggest threat to us. Make sure to wash them well. If this news brings down the cost of crawfish I will consider this a public service..

Don’t tell them about rice, they’ll flip when they find the average levels there
