Typical for crusts & dough
FDA doesn't test this exact kind of food, so these are the closest foods it does test. Treat them as a rough guide.
- Cadmium: typically 26.1 ppb (FDA, 6 samples, 2018-2020).
A toddler reaches EPA's daily limit at about 590 g (21 oz) a day; an adult at about 2.7 kg (6 lb).One serving (100 g (3½ oz)):17% of a toddler's daily limit4% of a adult's daily limit
- Arsenic (total): typically 1.75 ppb (FDA, 6 samples, 2018-2020). No US agency limit we can cite.
- Lead, Mercury: usually below 4 ppb, the lab's limit, in FDA's samples.
FDA samples behind these numbers
- Lead in Flour, white, all-purpose: found in 1 of 3, average 1.63, highest 4.9 ppb (2018-2020)
- Lead in Pie crust: found in 0 of 3, all below 4 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Flour, white, all-purpose: found in 3 of 3, average 42.3, highest 45 ppb (2018-2020)
- Cadmium in Pie crust: found in 3 of 3, average 8.63, highest 9.7 ppb (2018-2020)

"Typically" is FDA's middle sample. Daily amounts use the long-run average and each chemical's daily limit (EPA reference dose, or FDA's level for lead) for a 33-lb toddler and a 154-lb adult. ppb = micrograms per kilogram of food. Source: FDA Total Diet Study.
