Portfolio reading

Look for consistency across the range

The catalog shows a small but varied range led by Pork Roll; Pork Roll; 3 Cheese Macaroni. Across 13 tracked products, the mean is 88.0/100 and 40.0% 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 5 of 13 tracked Taylor records (38.5%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 8 cannot be screened, so the 88.0/100 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.

Sodium Nitrate is the flagged ingredient Taylor uses most

Across the 5 Taylor products scored here, Sodium Nitrate appears in 2. Only 291 other brands here use it (0.8%), 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.

Visible product sample

Label complexity does not determine the screening result

Each point is one of the 5 concern-sorted Taylor 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 (8 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.
