Heme iron is found in animal - based foods. Beef roast is meat (animal - based), and tuna is a fish (also animal - based). Raisins, kidney beans, fortified breakfast cereal, and enriched white rice are plant - based or fortified/processed plant - based and contain non - heme iron. So the sources of heme iron are Beef roast and Tuna.
