The FDA has warned consumers and retailers against certain imported cookware made from aluminum and brass, which may leach lead into food. Lead exposure is a serious concern due to its toxicity, especially for young children and pregnant women. The FDA advises against using such cookware, as there are no safe levels of lead exposure. Specific products from Indian manufacturer Saraswati Strips Pvt. Ltd. are included in this warning, but the FDA has been unable to initiate a recall due to a lack of contact with the distributor, leaving these items potentially available in stores.
The FDA issued an alert on imported cookware made from aluminum, brass, and aluminum alloys that may leach harmful levels of lead into food during cooking.
