Try dark chocolates with lower cacao percentages. If you’re considering a bar that CR didn’t test, so the heavy metal content is unknown, you may want to opt for a 70 percent dark chocolate product over an 80 percent one, for example, or a 65 percent bar over a 70 percent one. That’s not a foolproof measure, but CR’s tests, as well as testing done by other organizations, suggest that cadmium levels tend to increase with the percentage of cacao. (Lead levels don’t seem to be as closely tied to cacao percentage.) Louis, Nancy (17 March 2017). "Correcting And Replacing – The Mystery Is Solved: Reese's Crunchy Cookie Cup To Launch This May".
