Portfolio reading

Read the compact shelf sample

This compact set is concrete enough to inspect item by item: Creamed Cottage Cheese; Country Style Onion Dip; Sour Cream. Its 93.3/100 average and 100.0% flagged-product share summarize just 3 records, so a single reformulation can move both figures sharply. Use the product links as a checklist; the brand aggregate is orientation, not a recall, allergy clearance, or promise about products missing from Open Food Facts.

Calder Dairy relies most on Carrageenan, an industry staple

Across the 3 Calder Dairy products scored here, Carrageenan appears in 3. It is used by 2,390 other brands in this database (6.8% of them), so its presence says more about the category than about this brand. 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.
