Huel is a company founded in the EU (now brexited), but as a meal replacement, my guess is the formula is the same everywhere.
It sounds like the ingredients come from all over the world, so it’s probably a roll of the dice whether whatever lot you end up with contains material grown in soil with too high of a lead content.
No one is accidentally buying ‘sparkling protein’
Obviously, true Hamburgers can only be made from humans born and raised within the Hamburg city limits.
If you see “plant burger” and you are misled to think that it must be made of beef, that says a lot more about you than the manufacturer.
Yeah, this is definitely a more normal use of the word.
Not like a synonym for “mildly disagreed with”.
I really need to just put a filter on all of my feeds for the word “slam”. Unless there is any actual slamming going on, of course.
It looks like the EU’s limit for supplements is 3 mg/kg.

Consumer reports “level of concern” is ug/day. They tested Huel at 6.3 ug per 90 g serving, or 70 ug/kg (.07 mg/kg).
Basically Huel only hits 2.3% of the EU limits. It looks like the EU regulates “supplements” assuming they are like pills or something where you’d only consume a few grams a day. Compare it to salt, with a limit of 1 mg/kg. Something that you’d actually be expected to eat a lot of, like grain, has a limit of 0.2 mg/kg. Basically, it’s still below the limit there, but getting close.
The US limit for grain is .02 mg/kg, so 10x more strict than the EU. I’m not sure about supplements, though.
