Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 213 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Peppermint Dark & White Confection Topped With Crunchy Bits Of Peppermint Bark Candy, Peppermint; Milk Chocolate Covered Cherries, Milk Chocolate Covered; Moose Munch Premium Popcorn - Milk Chocolate; 13.9% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 97.0/100. 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 72 of 213 tracked Harry & David records (33.8%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 141 cannot be screened, so the 97.0/100 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.

Harry & David relies most on Caramel Coloring, an industry staple
Across the 72 Harry & David products scored here, Caramel Coloring appears in 6. 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.
| Flagged ingredient | Harry & David products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Caramel Coloring | 6 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Blue 1 | 2 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Red 40 | 2 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Titanium Dioxide | 2 | Restricted: EU (banned); California (under review) |
| BHA | 1 | Restricted: California (warning required under Prop 65) |
| BHT | 1 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Red 3 | 1 | FDA ban effective 2027-01-15 · Restricted: California (AB 418; effective 2027-01-01); Federal (FDA; effective 2027-01-15) |
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 50 concern-sorted Harry & David 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 (18 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.
