Consumer Reports on Wednesday said it has found 'concerning' levels of lead and cadmium in a new array of chocolate products, and renewed its call for Hershey (HSY.N) to reduce the amounts of heavy metals its chocolate contains.
Hershey's chocolates are pictured for sale on a store shelf in the Manhattan borough of New York City, New York, U.S. July 19, 2017.
Consumer Reports has said long-term exposure to the metals can result in nervous system problems, immune system suppression and kidney damage, with greater danger to pregnant women and young children.
