What this page can and cannot answer
A clean co-occurrence count is not a safety clearance

Product examples include Bianca neve shortbread cookie filled with cocoa cream and hazelnuts, bianca neve; Ferri di cavallo horseshoe shaped shortbread cookie covered with cocoa glaze at both ends, ferri di cavallo. Check the current label and authoritative source databases when the decision involves allergies, dosage, pregnancy, or a medical condition.
0% of linked products currently carry a separately flagged ingredient
Most NOVA-tagged examples land in Group 4 (2 of 2), yet the products span unrelated categories. That contrast matters: processing class can describe how a food was made while saying nothing decisive about this ingredient's regulatory status. Use the linked examples to understand formulation context, and leave the unanswered toxicology or individual-sensitivity question unanswered.
Next check: verify the unresolved source rating directly instead of converting zero co-flags into reassurance.
