How to use this page

Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood

This is a mixed product neighborhood: 1 of 3 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not.

Natural Flavors itself. The ingredient most often sits in the upper half of the list, and Plant-based foods and beverages supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.

1 of 3 linked records have some flagged component

All 3 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves.

Next check: pair one flagged product with a similar unflagged product from the same shelf category.
