Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 32 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Turkey Ham; Turkey Ham; Oven Roasted Turkey Breast; 81.0% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 85.7/100. 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 32 tracked Fud records (65.6%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 11 cannot be screened, so the 85.7/100 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 Fud
Fud: 32 products tracked, 21 with an ingredient list, avg safety score 85.7/100, 81.0% of those scored products has at least one flagged ingredient.
Because ingredient lists cover only 65.6% of tracked records, this average is a description of the labelled subset, not a brand-wide tier. The coverage gap is the dominant limitation. Scoring methodology + dye-pledge context →

Sodium Nitrite is the flagged ingredient Fud uses most
Across the 21 Fud products scored here, Sodium Nitrite appears in 16. Only 1,491 other brands here use it (4.2%), 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 | Fud products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Sodium Nitrite | 16 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Carrageenan | 3 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Sodium Nitrate | 3 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
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.
Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 21 concern-sorted Fud 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 (13 ingredients and 85/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.

The outlined point is Turkey Ham, the displayed record with the most flagged ingredients (3). Bubble size represents flagged ingredient count plus one, so zero-flagged products remain visible. The score is derived from FDA SAFFA and CSPI fields; this chart does not establish recall status, dietary suitability, or a health outcome.
