Amaretto

Amaretto appears in 7 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

Amaretto appears in 7 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.

Typical depth in an ingredient list
69%
Averaged label depth puts Amaretto in the lower half of the list (69% of list length, mean slot 12.6). Compound ingredients and OCR noise mean this cannot stand in for quantity.

Computed from parsed product ingredient lists (Open Food Facts). The ranking covers 247,206 ingredients that appear at least once. Neither usage rank nor label depth is a safety clearance.

Reading this ingredient record

Use prevalence before concern

Only 14.3% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Amaretto spans 4 named brands and is led by the Desserts group. Start with Belgium Chocolate; Blvd, Ice Cream, Classic Tortoni; Blvd, Ice Cream, Praline Almond when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 99.3/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.

4 named brands carry this ingredient

The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 5 of 7 classified products, leaving a meaningful remainder elsewhere. This breadth is why the page reports label depth, category, and product examples separately. Those dimensions help locate comparable products; combining them into a stronger safety claim would hide the variation the catalog actually contains.

Next check: compare label position across two brands before treating prevalence as equivalent exposure.

How do the sampled products compare?

Each point is one of the 7 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.
