Winn Dixie relies most on Caramel Coloring, an industry staple
Across the 516 Winn Dixie products scored here, Caramel Coloring appears in 97. It is used by 3,551 other brands in this database (10.1% 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 | Winn Dixie products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Caramel Coloring | 97 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Aspartame | 36 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Red 40 | 36 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Yellow 5 | 29 | FDA voluntary phase-out target 2027-12-31 (a request, not a ban) · Restricted: California (schools) |
| Acesulfame Potassium | 27 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Sodium Nitrite | 27 | Preservative with a recorded concern |

| Blue 1 | 16 | 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 Winn Dixie 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 (11 ingredients and 45/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
