Portfolio reading
Look for consistency across the range
The catalog shows a small but varied range led by Premium Ice Cream; 100% Liquid Egg Whites; French Style Vanilla Ice Cream. Across 10 tracked products, the mean is 95.0/100 and 50.0% carry a separately flagged ingredient. That is enough to compare formulations inside this captured range, but not enough to assume every current package matches. Start with the lowest-scoring product rows and confirm the ingredient panel when a specific additive matters.
Catalog evidence
Ingredient-list coverage comes before the score
Only 2 of 10 tracked Ingles Best records (20%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 8 cannot be screened, so the 95.0/100 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.

Ingles Best relies most on Carrageenan, an industry staple
Across the 2 Ingles Best products scored here, Carrageenan appears in 1. 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 | Ingles Best products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Carrageenan | 1 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Polysorbate 80 | 1 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
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.
