Florida testing finds high levels of Roundup weed killer in several popular bread brands

LAKE WORTH BEACH, Fla. (CBS12) — Governor Ron DeSantis, First Lady Casey DeSantis, and Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo appeared together on Thursday at Palm Beach State College, unveiling the latest round of the state’s Healthy Florida First food-testing initiative, releasing new findings that show several widely sold bread brands contain high levels of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup.

This marks their latest joint public event, just weeks after unveiling statewide candy testing results that found arsenic in most children-marketed sweets as part of Florida’s expanding Healthy Florida First initiative. Their appearance also follows the Governor's December visit to Palm Beach County, when he held a press conference at Good Greek Moving & Storage on North Jog Road in West Palm Beach, discussing Florida’s economy, tax concerns, and fiscal management.
