Black Tea Extract
Black Tea Extract appears in 145 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
Black Tea Extract appears in 145 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.

What this page can and cannot answer
Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood
This is a mixed product neighborhood: 48 of 145 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare Antioxidant Super Tea Pomegranate Lemonade Tea; Antioxidant super tea, pomegranate; Arizona Arnold Palmer Half & Half Fruit Snacks to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 45–100 score range to Black Tea Extract itself. The ingredient most often sits in the lower half of the list, and Beverages supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.
48 of 145 linked records have some flagged component
All 140 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 45–100 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.
