Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers

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.

Maud Borup relies most on Red 40, an industry staple
Across the 88 Maud Borup products scored here, Red 40 appears in 48. It is used by 2,397 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 | Maud Borup products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Red 40 | 48 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |

| Red 3 | 14 | FDA ban effective 2027-01-15 · Restricted: California (AB 418; effective 2027-01-01); Federal (FDA; effective 2027-01-15) |
| BHT | 6 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Blue 2 | 2 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |

Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 50 concern-sorted Maud Borup 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 (15 ingredients and 10/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
