In 2024, Friends of the Earth found a cocktail of toxic pesticides in two non-organic baby food products made by Target’s house brand, Good & Gather. A year later, we wanted to see if anything had changed. So we sent samples of the same Good & Gather products, Apple Fruit Purée and Pear Fruit Purée for babies, back to the lab.
What did we find? Even more pesticides – and even more highly hazardous pesticides – than the previous year. A parent sitting down to feed their baby with the most-polluted jar we tested would be unknowingly feeding their child 18 different pesticides.
