Testing evidence and its limits

2026 Consumer Reports tested Kendamil goat formula, but exact available lot data not reproduced

FDA aggregate survey cannot be assigned to the SKU. Consumer Reports sample results must be attributed only to the exact format tested.

No original numerical laboratory report with an exact lot, method and reporting limits is attached to this record. Missing results do not mean zero contamination.

Read the recorded contaminant evidence

FDA market survey: FDA survey analyzed 312 formula samples across 16 brands. Aggregate numerical values and tested PFAS compounds cannot be attributed to this specific SKU without a manufacturer/lot crosswalk.
Consumer Reports: Consumer Reports 2025/2026 researched powdered formulas; product/variant/method/sample-specific numerical lab data not independently collected into this record.
Heavy metals: No publicly verifiable original numerical test report with exact lot/method/LOQ attached to this record
Targeted PFAS compounds: No exact lot analyte table and LOQ attached
Fluorine screens: NOT ASSESSED: must not infer from targeted PFAS screen
Microbiological testing: No exact-lot manufacturing microbiological certificate of analysis attached; recalls take priority over statements of testing
Reporting limits: NOT VERIFIED for product-specific samples
Non-detect interpretation: Any future non-detect must be described as below the method-specific detection/reporting capability, not absent.

Certification claims and scope

2025 CLP certificate lists Goat Infant UPC 850045238025. Annual renewal and February 2026 recipe applicability unverified. Source-reported claims/older certificates do not establish a verified-current badge, contaminant absence or current-lot clearance.

Earlier recorded certification claims

EXACT SKU / CERTIFICATE / EXPIRY NOT ESTABLISHED

Not independently verified for exact UPC and date

USDA Organic when substantiated evaluates organic agricultural standards; other certifications address their specific scope and do not automatically establish heavy-metal or pathogen absence.

A certification claim has not been verified for this exact current SKU. Organic production standards do not establish contaminant absence or sterility.

Recall information

No exact-product active recall established in this source pass; no guarantee of current lot status

The dossier date is not a live recall check. Match the exact product, country, lot and expiry date against the regulator's notice.

Read the separately checked regulatory notices.

Dated item prices

Observed 2026-10-13 on published source pages. These are package prices, before any unverified tax, delivery, service or membership costs. They are not live checkout quotes or a cost-per-calorie ranking. Confirm the actual package and current terms at the source.

$44.99 (USD), 28.2 oz, one container; Target. Recorded availability: available.
Displayed one-can item price; no subscription discount selected. Tax, delivery fees, and local stock were not checked at checkout.
Price observation source

No affiliate link or price tier is assigned. Prices do not determine this assessment.

Reviewed editorial assessment

Consider conditionally within the recorded US market and goat standard group. The revised source identifies bovine lactose/GOS and both goat and cow milk. The source expressly says unsuitable for cow-milk protein allergy. Goat branding does not make this dairy-free. No current-lot laboratory clearance or universal superiority is established.

Recorded cautions and use limits

These cautions reflect the recorded source review. Read them alongside the reviewed assessment and source limitations.

Powdered infant formula is not sterile; follow current official preparation, safe-water, and storage instructions, particularly for newborns under 2 months, premature infants, and immunocompromised infants.
Only use formula manufactured, labeled and authorized for the intended country; check exact SKU and lot-specific FDA/FSA recall notices.
Cow- and goat-milk formulas are not substitutes for a prescribed extensively hydrolyzed or amino-acid allergy formula.
Manufacturer certification, organic production, ingredient-free claims and marketing language do not establish contaminant absence or individual-lot safety.

AVOID AS COW-MILK-PROTEIN ALLERGY TREATMENT: goat/A2 bovine milk proteins are not hypoallergenic
Avoid products with broken seals, expiration, or lot numbers covered by a recall; verify intended country of sale

Product-specific evidence gaps

Final can allergen statement
Exact manufacturer content for updated variant
Original laboratory contaminant numbers

These are the original dossier's specific gaps. Later source review above may resolve a published-reference question while physical package and lot verification remain separate.

Legal history and search limits

No complete jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction litigation docket search completed. Do not interpret as a finding that no lawsuits exist.

A limited or incomplete docket search cannot establish that a company has no litigation. Regulatory notices, allegations and court findings have distinct meanings.

Original working research

The supplied dossier contains 10 working observations for this product. These are not independent laboratory findings. Missing citations, methods, quantities and lot matches remain missing; an entry's wording does not establish that its claim has been verified.
