Typical levels

FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food; these are the closest foods it does test.

Cadmium: typically 36.3 ppb (FDA, 12 samples, 2018-2020). A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 340 g (12 oz) a day; an adult at about 1.6 kg (3.5 lb).
One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):
29% of a toddler's daily limit
6% of a adult's daily limit
Lead, Mercury, Arsenic (total), Perchlorate: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
