Portfolio reading
Look for consistency across the range
The catalog shows a small but varied range led by Frosted Sugar Cookies; Chocoflan Chocolate Creme Cake Topped With A Custard Flan, Chocoflan; Deluxe Shells And Four Cheese Pasta Dinner. Across 27 tracked products, the mean is 95.0/100 and 9.5% 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 21 of 27 tracked Our Specialty records (77.8%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 6 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.
What the Data Says About Our Specialty
Our Specialty: 27 products tracked, 21 with an ingredient list, avg safety score 95.0/100, 9.5% of those scored products has at least one flagged ingredient.
Because ingredient lists cover only 77.8% of tracked records, this average is a description of the labelled subset, not a brand-wide tier. The coverage gap is the dominant limitation. Scoring methodology + dye-pledge context →

Our Specialty relies most on Blue 1, an industry staple
Across the 21 Our Specialty products scored here, Blue 1 appears in 1. It is used by 1,963 other brands in this database (5.6% 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 | Our Specialty products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Blue 1 | 1 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Blue 2 | 1 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Caramel Coloring | 1 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Red 3 | 1 | FDA ban effective 2027-01-15 · Restricted: California (AB 418; effective 2027-01-01); Federal (FDA; effective 2027-01-15) |
| Red 40 | 1 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Yellow 5 | 1 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
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.
Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 21 concern-sorted Our Specialty 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 (17 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.
