HIGHLIGHT:

Moms Across America (MAA), a U.S. non-profit, has initiated an extensive testing program on the top twenty fast food brands in America, plus one restaurant, California’s In-N-Out Burger. Forty-two samples of 21 brands were tested for the most widely used herbicide in the world, glyphosate, 236 agrochemicals, 4 heavy metals, PFAS, phthalates, and mineral content. The top ten brands were additionally tested for 104 commonly used veterinary drugs and hormones, B Vitamins and calories.
Fast food is consumed by eighty-five million Americans each day, and many chains are often the suppliers of school lunches. Thirty million school meals are served to our children each day, and for millions of underprivileged children, these toxic meals are their only access to nutrition. MAA previous testing has shown that America’s school lunches are indeed toxic.
US Restaurants tested: Arby's, Burger King Chick-FIL-A, Chipotle, Dairy Queen, McDonalds, Panda Express, KFC, Panera, Piza-Hut, Starbucks. Subway , Taco Bell, Wendy's.
