[–] JamesBarney 7y ago ↗ Just give those numbers some context.The admissible daily maximum intake limit for chronic toxicity glyphosate is 1mg/kg.A typical impossible burger is 85g, which @ 11 ppb contains .000936 mgs of glyphosate.Which is 106,000 times less than the admissible daily maximum intake for a 100kg person.So even the hamburgler is safe.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyphosate
[–] Scaevolus 7y ago ↗ Wow, only 11ppb? That might be the cleanest food you can find in America, based on this other totally-unbiased site that claims the average American's _urine_ has that level: https://detoxproject.org/glyphosate-in-food-water/

The admissible daily maximum intake limit for chronic toxicity glyphosate is 1mg/kg.
A typical impossible burger is 85g, which @ 11 ppb contains .000936 mgs of glyphosate.
Which is 106,000 times less than the admissible daily maximum intake for a 100kg person.
So even the hamburgler is safe.
