Campbell’s Soup: Stop Poisoning Our Food!

The Issue

Consumer Reports has found that major canned food companies including Campbell’s Soup are using cans that leach Bisphenol A (BPA) into food.

BPA is linked to many health risks including reproductive abnormalities, neurological effects, heightened risk of breast and prostate cancers, diabetes, heart disease and other serious health problems.

Children are particularly sensitive to the toxic chemical and the testing revealed that just one or a few servings of canned food would exceed scientific limits for daily exposure.

Even foods labeled “organic” and “BPA-free” were contaminated.

Campbell’s could become an industry leader and commit to stop using BPA and stop poisoning their customers, but so far they haven’t. Many large companies including Target, Wal-Mart, Nalgene, Babies R Us and others have already committed to ending their use of BPA.

Why is Campbell’s still putting toxins in its soup? 

Send a letter to executives Campbell’s Soup asking them to take proactive action and commit to phasing out their use of BPA immediately.
