Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 1,740 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Ham & Swiss Cheese Pretzel Roll Sandwich; Swedish Style Meatballs; Beef Meatballs; 4.2% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 99.8/100. 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 736 of 1,740 tracked Good & Gather records (42.3%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 1,004 cannot be screened, so the 99.8/100 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.

Good & Gather relies most on Carrageenan, an industry staple
Across the 736 Good & Gather products scored here, Carrageenan appears in 21. 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 | Good & Gather products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Carrageenan | 21 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Caramel Coloring | 8 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Polysorbate 80 | 1 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Sodium Nitrite | 1 | 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 50 concern-sorted Good & Gather 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 (16 ingredients and 95/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
