31g
31g appears in 18 indexed US food products. No FDA SAFFA status or CSPI rating is attached in this snapshot, so this page reports prevalence rather than a safety verdict.
What the data can answer
31g appears in 18 catalogued products, but this snapshot has no FDA SAFFA status or CSPI Chemical Cuisine rating attached to it. This page therefore cannot answer whether the ingredient is safe from those sources. It can show how often it occurs, where it tends to sit on labels, and which kinds of products contain it.

Catalog prevalence comes from Open Food Facts ingredient lists. FDA SAFFA and CSPI Chemical Cuisine labels are shown only when the source record contains them.
Reading this ingredient record
Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood
This is a mixed product neighborhood: 4 of 18 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare Blackberry Poppyseed Dressing; chewy Chips Ahoy! chocolatey cookies with HERSHEY'S fudge filling; Chewy dippers to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 55–100 score range to 31g itself. The ingredient most often sits in the upper half of the list, and Condiments supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.
4 of 18 linked records have some flagged component
All 12 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 55–100 score spread more informative than the average alone: investigate the low end, identify the actual flagged row, and compare it with a similar unflagged formulation before drawing a conclusion.
Next check: pair one flagged product with a similar unflagged product from the same shelf category.
31g sits in the busiest tenth of the catalog (#10,099 / 247,206)
- Usage rank
- #10,099

- Typical depth in an ingredient list
- 49%
- Mean relative depth 49% across 18 parsed labels, slot 8.5 on average. 31g tends to sit in the upper half of the list. Depth is location on the label, not a measured dose.
Ranks use Open Food Facts ingredient rows on this site’s refresh cycle. 247,206 ingredients with ≥1 product appearance enter the ranking. Prevalence and list depth are catalog facts, not toxicology.
How do the sampled products compare?
Each point is one of the 16 sampled products listed below: its overall safety score against how many separately flagged ingredients its label carries. Bubble size is the number of ingredient rows the label actually resolved to.

31g — common follow-ups
Does 31g carry its own safety label in this catalog? ▼
This is a mixed neighborhood: some linked products carry a separate flag while others do not. This snapshot does not attach a standalone FDA/CSPI verdict to 31g. Compare like-for-like products before treating the average screening score as an ingredient verdict.
Which product shelves show up most often with 31g? ▼
31g ranks in the top decile by product count (#10,099 of 247,206), appearing in 18 indexed products led by Condiments. The sample list below is a slice of that footprint, not the full universe.
Why is 31g so common on ingredient lists? ▼
