I generally try to do a little research before buying spices: https://journals.lww.com/jphmp/fulltext/2019/01001/a_spoonful_of_lead__a_10_year_look_at_spices_as_a.11.aspx

Yea, check country of origin on that stuff.

Places like Patel Brothers actually package a lot of their own stuff, so a surprising amount is from the US, but not all. I think most of the lead is really from specific countries with low amounts of regulation. Unfortunately, it means for the exotic spices, very often you're stuck getting it from a source that might not have many regulations in it's supply chain.
