> then applying it to California's carcinogen list

I've seen prop 65 warnings in hotel rooms, likely due to lead pipes in the toiletry. The application, and to an extent the compounds included, are a little overkill. Keeping that in mind, It would be worth scrubbing through the article and seeing what the components are that are not just "California Carcinogens". That's what would be the really valuable information here.

Even the jar of hoisin sauce I bought at Safeway has a prop 65 warning.

Perhaps someone misread it as poison sauce?

No, I think most fermented sauces (soy, hoisin, worchestershire) have to carry a prop 65 warning
