Portfolio reading
Look for consistency across the range
The catalog shows a small but varied range led by Shredded cheddar imitation cheese; Mexican blend imitation cheese; Dairy Fresh, Ricotta Cheese. Across 16 tracked products, the mean is 99.4/100 and 12.5% carry a separately flagged ingredient. That is enough to compare formulations inside this captured range, but not enough to assume every current package matches. Start with the lowest-scoring product rows and confirm the ingredient panel when a specific additive matters.

Detroit City Dairy Inc. relies most on Carrageenan, an industry staple
Across the 16 Detroit City Dairy Inc. products scored here, Carrageenan appears in 2. 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.
| Flagged ingredient | Detroit City Dairy Inc. products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Carrageenan | 2 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
Counts are products in this database whose ingredient list names the flagged ingredient. Flags come from FDA enforcement actions, CSPI Chemical Cuisine ratings and US state ingredient laws; see the methodology for how each source is applied.

Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 16 concern-sorted Detroit City Dairy Inc. records shown below.

The dashed medians (5 ingredients and 100/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
