Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 96 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Genoa salame; Italian Dry Salame; Genoa salami & provolone cheese snack pack, genoa salami & provolone; 19.5% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 96.0/100. 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 41 of 96 tracked Primo Taglio records (42.7%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 55 cannot be screened, so the 96.0/100 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 Primo Taglio
Primo Taglio: 96 products tracked, 41 with an ingredient list, avg safety score 96.0/100, 19.5% of those scored products has at least one flagged ingredient.

Sodium Nitrite is the flagged ingredient Primo Taglio uses most
Across the 41 Primo Taglio products scored here, Sodium Nitrite appears in 8. Only 1,491 other brands here use it (4.2%), which makes it a more particular choice than the flags that dominate the catalogue. 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 | Primo Taglio products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Sodium Nitrite | 8 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Sodium Nitrate | 3 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
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 41 concern-sorted Primo Taglio 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 (7 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.
