Quote: "Véronique Sirot: It's true that TDS3 did actually show a reduction in the average concentrations of acrylamide, silver, aluminium, cadmium and lead in food. However, this was not the case for all foods. In fact, increases were observed in certain food groups. This was the case, for example, with certain cereal-based products such as bread, sweet biscuits, fine bakery wares, pasta, etc. These are the foods that contribute most to our dietary exposure to aluminium, cadmium and lead. Concentrations of these contaminants in certain vegetables have increased, although this does not call into question the indisputable nutritional benefits of eating them. On the other hand, sweet biscuits and fine bakery wares, as well as being contaminated with certain trace metals and acrylamide, have little nutritional benefit."
