An FDA spokesperson said that one of the agency’s theories for the WanaBana cinnamon applesauce contamination was “economically motivated adulteration.”

The lead contamination in recalled cinnamon applesauce pouches that potentially poisoned at least 65 children may have been intentional, the Food and Drug Administration said on Friday.

The FDA has been investigating the lead contamination in the cinnamon-flavored applesauce products from Florida-based food manufacturer WanaBana since October.

The agency has homed in on the cinnamon specifically as the source of the lead.

    IDK, they’d usually bring out the perfect solution fallacy and say that FDA didn’t really prevent it from happening.

    The only thing is that they’re not allowed to sell anymore(I hope), so the damage will not get any worse.
