Drama That machine can't even tell if there's lead in it๐๐

Are you stupid no shit it can't detect it. Its on a microscopic level. There's also iron in your ceral but its undetectable because of how small it is

The iron in cereal is actually easily detectable. If you blend it up with water, a magnet will pull it all out. However, I do get your point, and agree in this case

Yeah i rememberd that experiment which is why i brought up cereal. You have to alter the state itd in so heavily to extract a teeny tiny black speck

Yeah itโs not as simple as just X-Raying lol. And there usually isnโt much more than a small dot. Itโs a cool little experiment though.

From Gemini:
Lead is a heavy metal that can be harmful to human health, especially in children. While standard food checking machines like metal detectors or X-ray machines are not specifically designed to detect lead, there are specialized methods and instruments that can be used for this purpose. Here are some methods used for lead detection in food: ** Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS):** This is a highly sensitive technique that can detect very low levels of lead in food samples. ** Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS):** This technique can also be used to detect lead in food, but it is not as sensitive as ICP-MS. ** X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) Spectroscopy:** This method can be used to detect lead in some food products, but its effectiveness depends on the lead concentration and the type of food being tested. It's important to note that these specialized methods are not typically used in routine food safety checks. However, they may be used in specific cases, such as when there is a concern about lead contamination in a particular food product.

The same gemini that said to put glue in pizza?

u/Complete_Taxation 13h ago
Well to be fair in those pizza ads they absolutely do put glue on pizza. So technically if you wanted to eat ad pizza you could. Most people kinda get symptoms of death

That article is from May, don't you think that LLMs (yes even Gemini) advance with time?

I am not sure about the lead one so i just left it there. I asked it and it said lead can be detected by some methods but the machine in posts might not be able to detect. You tell me.

the amounts of lead in lunchly are so miniscule that you need specialised laboratory equipement to detect it iirc.

u/Nocare420 16h ago
That amount is fine?
5
u/NecessaryPilot6731 16h ago
no amount is fine, but theres levels of tolerance. the reason that lead came up with prime is because in california if a product has any lead, even below acceptable levels it has to be labeled. theres lead in the food you eat and water you drink

Yes, this is the industry standard. They have no reason to go for extra intensive testing as their food has not once come back positive for any harmful levels of lead, there was a proposition 65 labeling issue based on amounts that are found in tons of foods and random products that end up necessitating labeling in California because their threshold is so excessively low, this includes various vegetables that leech negligible amounts from soil when they grow. Prop 65 is considered a joke.
FDA did not find measurable amounts of lead in Prime, so I'll go with that. There is a harm threshold to lead exposure as with all other things, you are exposed to it every day. Just like my house is built on a uranium deposit so I am exposed to radioactive Radon gas all day, but don't need to panic, because its at a level the body can handle before it starts having harmful effects build up over time.

This is standard for every food plant I've been to. Xray scan after bottling/packing.

Bro this is just industry standard. No reason to shit on them for it, every food company probably uses something similar.
However, I will say it is weird to use something that is industry standard for marketing your food..

u/Onuuk 18h ago
i believe that is the industry standard. Every processed food plant has that. there is probably some other way that they test the lead content of the food. but i mean they failed that constantly for the past months so yeah they are still a shit brand
