Across the 65 The Jel Sert Company products scored here, Yellow 5 appears in 47. It is used by 2,320 other brands in this database (6.6% 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 | The Jel Sert Company products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow 5 | 47 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |

Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 50 concern-sorted The Jel Sert Company 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 ingredients and 0/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
