A recent study by Consumer Reports tested a mix of dark chocolate bars from different brands, including Mast, Ghirardelli, Lindt and Dove. It found that eating just a single ounce a day of one of the 23 bars tested would expose an adult to at least one of those metals over the level experts from Consumer Reports and public health authorities say may be harmful.
But you don’t have to swear off dark chocolate completely to avoid heavy metals.
What can I do to avoid high levels of heavy metals?
Consumer Reports did find relatively low levels of lead and cadmium in five of the chocolate bars it tested – Mast Organic Dark Chocolate 80% Cacao, Taza Chocolate Organic Deliciously Dark Chocolate 70% Cacao, Ghirardelli Intense Dark Chocolate 86% Cacao, Ghirardelli Intense Dark Chocolate Twilight Delight 72% Cacao and Valrhona Abinao Dark Chocolate 85% Cacao.
By choosing one of these options, you can still give your sweetheart rich, dark chocolate while avoiding potential health harms.

Ghirardelli is kosher. I didn’t bother looking up the others but they might be too
