|---|---|---|
| Caramel Coloring | 5 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| BHA | 2 | Restricted: California (warning required under Prop 65) |
| BHT | 2 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Sodium Nitrite | 2 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Polysorbate 80 | 1 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |

| Sucralose | 1 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| TBHQ | 1 | Preservative with a recorded concern |

The dashed medians (13 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.
