Reading this ingredient record

Audit the co-occurring flags first

Open records such as Airheads Blue Raspberry Gum; Bombi Crayon, Bubble Gum; Bubble gum and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker.

Its 89% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

93.2% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 44 of 44 NOVA-tagged records. That describes the surrounding products, not the substance. For a useful comparison, hold category and processing level constant, then inspect which named component changes alongside the caution flag; otherwise the product mix will confound the ingredient question.

Next check: open the lowest-scoring linked formulation and locate the exact caution-marked component.
