Tea found to contain contaminants

This is unfortunate and interesting. This ended up in the Canadian press where standards might be stricter than the U.S. Keep in mind that some of these are exceedingly small but still.....

And it could be that pesticides are not used on the tea but they are being picked up by the tea plants from ambient pesticides being used on other crops. Supposedly only Red Rose tea did not contain contaminants.
