The Schwan Food Company relies most on Carrageenan, an industry staple
Across the 31 The Schwan Food Company products scored here, Carrageenan appears in 9. It is used by 2,390 other brands in this database (6.8% 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 Schwan Food Company products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Carrageenan | 9 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| BHA | 5 | Restricted: California (warning required under Prop 65) |
| BHT | 5 | Preservative with a recorded concern |
| Sodium Nitrite | 5 | 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.

Label complexity does not determine the screening result

The dashed medians (35 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.
