@consumerreports: None of the boba, the tapioca pearls found in the popular drink, in the products we tested exceeded our level of concern for lead—but there’s more to the story.

Cassava is a known staple in many countries. Are these countries known to have long term lead poisoning?

I’ve noticed that Trader Joe’s has recently started using tapioca ingredients in MANY of their food products! Over the past year, and even products that used to not have tapioca now contain tapioca, often tapioca syrup for sweetener

Any root vegetables like carrots known to absorb lead. Do you also test carrot related food? Feels like MSG scare again. Why is it always Asian food that undergoes this kind of scare tactic.

If you don’t do a Lead report on yoca, carrots, beats, then you and consumer report brand is racist brand. Scientifically, it is not about plant but soil that causes led. With all rejecting facts from your own study , you choose issue warning, you are not a good human.

Lol. This is absurd. Casava is eaten daily in many countries and this is not an issue in the slightest. This is just more alarmist postings that are not genuine or useful.

When you say unbiased you forgot to mention American factories that produce boba. Xenophobic behavior towards Asians isn't a good look.
U.S. boba manufacturers
* BobaVida California
* US Boba Company California
* Fanale Drinks California
* Lollicup USA (Tea Zone brand) California
