Good Humor relies most on Caramel Coloring, an industry staple
Across the 41 Good Humor products scored here, Caramel Coloring appears in 25. It is used by 3,551 other brands in this database (10.1% 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.

The dashed medians (26 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.
