Why did I become moster?

yes, I read SN, but I wonder because.... seems to me that the theory and the practice of lead-free food production are not necessarily the same thing. Is it actually that "easy", or is there too much lead on and in everything and you'd need to do it in a vaccuum sealed environment with super-duper air filters etc?
