Are baby foods subject to stricter standards that adult foods? The short answer is, not really. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has specific guidelines for baby formulas, labeling requirements for baby and toddler foods, and maximum allowable levels of arsenic in baby rice cereal. These requirements are not unlike requirements for other foods, but should baby food requirements be stricter than those for adult foods? Recently, baby foods have come under scrutiny following reports of allegedly high levels of heavy metals in baby food. This led to a Congressional investigation.
