Portfolio reading
Read the compact shelf sample
This compact set is concrete enough to inspect item by item: Chocolate 1% Lowfat Milk; Milk; 2% Reduced Fat Milk. Its 98.3/100 average and 33.3% flagged-product share summarize just 7 records, so a single reformulation can move both figures sharply. Use the product links as a checklist; the brand aggregate is orientation, not a recall, allergy clearance, or promise about products missing from Open Food Facts.
Catalog evidence
Ingredient-list coverage comes before the score
Only 3 of 7 tracked McArthur Dairy records (42.9%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 4 cannot be screened, so the 98.3/100 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.
