Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 120 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins Mountain Dew Code Red; Drink Mix; Diet fountain mist; 51.1% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 83.9/100. 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 94 of 120 tracked Sodastream records (78.3%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 26 cannot be screened, so the 83.9/100 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 Sodastream
Sodastream: 120 products tracked, 94 with an ingredient list, avg safety score 83.9/100, 51.1% of those scored products has at least one flagged ingredient.

Sucralose is the flagged ingredient Sodastream uses most
Across the 94 Sodastream products scored here, Sucralose appears in 45. Only 1,692 other brands here use it (4.8%), 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 | Sodastream products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Sucralose | 45 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Acesulfame Potassium | 40 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Caramel Coloring | 19 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Yellow 5 | 4 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Blue 1 | 1 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Red 40 | 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 50 concern-sorted Sodastream 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 (12.5 ingredients and 70/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
