In August, news broke that Cheerios, Quaker Oats, and other breakfast cereals were contaminated with glyphosate weed killer. Just this week, more news of glyphosate in snack bars. Parents across the nation became concerned about their family's breakfast foods and snacks. Now we learn we must also be looking at the most popular breakfast beverage, orange juice, as well.

 … the sample from [Florida's Natural] showed results almost 3 times higher than the previous year's test results provided to another organization, showing an increase, rather than a decrease of the use of glyphosate herbicides.

Over one year after initial tests, Moms Across America sent America's most popular orange juice brands to be tested again for the carcinogenic chemical glyphosate. The new test results, ranging from 2.99 ppb to 17.16 ppb, are not promising. Although the different brands, Tropicana, Minute Maid, Costco's Kirkland Signature, and Stater Bros. had slightly lower levels of glyphosate weed killer than the first tests conducted a year ago, all still had detectable levels of glyphosate. In addition, Moms Across America added another sample, Florida's Natural, and the results were not only among the highest of all the brands tested for glyphosate residues, the sample from the brand showed results almost 3 times higher than the previous year's test results provided to another organization, showing an increase, rather than a decrease of the use of glyphosate herbicides.
