California Proposition 65 Notice

At Giusto Sapore, we are committed to providing transparency and important product-related information to our customers. California Proposition 65, officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, requires businesses to notify consumers when products may expose them to chemicals recognized by the State of California as potentially causing cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm.

To comply with these requirements, certain products sold by Giusto Sapore may display the following notice:

WARNING: This product may expose you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Understanding Proposition 65

California Proposition 65 was established to help consumers make informed purchasing decisions by providing information about potential chemical exposures. The law applies to a broad range of products, foods, and consumer goods that may contain naturally occurring or trace levels of listed substances.

The list of chemicals covered under Proposition 65 is maintained and regularly updated by California authorities and includes hundreds of substances identified through scientific evaluation.

Why Does Giusto Sapore Display Proposition 65 Warnings?

Giusto Sapore provides Proposition 65 notifications to comply with California regulations when offering products to customers located in California. The presence of a warning label does not automatically mean a product is unsafe or prohibited for use or consumption. In many cases, warnings are provided because California standards require disclosure even when exposure levels are low.

Foods That May Naturally Develop Certain Compounds During Processing

These compounds are not intentionally added but can develop naturally through food preparation methods.

WARNING: Certain food products may contain naturally occurring chemicals, including acrylamide, recognized by the State of California as potentially causing cancer or reproductive harm.

Certain fresh foods including fruits, vegetables, grains, seeds, and nuts may contain naturally occurring substances or environmental trace elements that fall under California disclosure requirements.
