Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 49 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Zero Sugar Tropical; Diet cherry; SHIRLEY TEMPLE; 61.9% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 74.3/100. Open those outliers first, then compare neighboring formulations. The aggregate does not establish recall status, allergen suitability, or the composition of an item outside this snapshot.
Catalog evidence
Ingredient-list coverage comes before the score
Only 21 of 49 tracked 7up records (42.9%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 28 cannot be screened, so the 74.3/100 mean describes the labelled subset rather than the whole brand.
Next check: use the product rows below to verify the labelled subset, then compare the current package for any unscored item.
What the Data Says About 7up
7up: 49 products tracked, 21 with an ingredient list, avg safety score 74.3/100, 61.9% of those scored products has at least one flagged ingredient.

Acesulfame Potassium is the flagged ingredient 7up uses most
Across the 21 7up products scored here, Acesulfame Potassium appears in 10. Only 929 other brands here use it (2.6%), which makes it a more particular choice than the flags that dominate the catalogue. A flag records that a named source raised a concern about an ingredient. It is not a finding that a product is unsafe to eat.
| Flagged ingredient | 7up products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Acesulfame Potassium | 10 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Aspartame | 7 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |

Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 21 concern-sorted 7up records shown below. Horizontal position is the number of resolved ingredients on that product's stored label; vertical position is its source-derived screening score. The dashed medians (9 ingredients and 70/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
