Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 102 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Orange Soda Pop with Other Natural Flavors; Faygo orange; Orange Soda; 96.4% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 60.2/100. 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 56 of 102 tracked Faygo records (54.9%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 46 cannot be screened, so the 60.2/100 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.

Sucralose is the flagged ingredient Faygo uses most
Across the 56 Faygo products scored here, Sucralose appears in 49. Only 1,692 other brands here use it (4.8%), 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.

|---|---|---|
| Sucralose | 49 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Red 40 | 21 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Caramel Coloring | 14 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Brominated Vegetable Oil | 11 | FDA ban effective 2024-07-01 · Restricted: Federal (FDA revoked) |

Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 50 concern-sorted Faygo 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 (10 ingredients and 60/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
