Emerald Cove Pacific sea vegetables have been a mainstay in American pantries for more than 30 years. Enjoy our non-GMO dried seaweed varieties in everything from sushi and miso soup to seaweed salad, poke bowls, wraps, sandwiches and baked goods. Thank you for supporting our small business. As a certified plastic neutral company, your purchase of this product helps to support waste management and recycling programs in developing countries, providing stable employment for at-risk populations and removing and repurposing thousands of pounds of plastic from the environment each year. Our sea vegetables are grown sustainably in the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. Each year we send a sample of each variety to an independent laboratory to be tested for the presence of heavy metals. Our products consistently test well within FDA guidelines, however California Proposition 65 guidelines differ from those of the FDA. Our sea vegetables are sold on Amazon nationwide with no way to identify which state a product will be sent to. Therefore, all packs of sea vegetables include a California Prop 65 notice for California residents as required by California law. WARNING: Consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which is known to the state of CA to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
