Coffee Extract

Coffee Extract appears in 370 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

Coffee Extract appears in 370 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.

Reading this ingredient record

Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood

This is a mixed product neighborhood: 180 of 370 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare A Dozen Sweet Bites; Alpina, cafe nonfat greek yogurt, coffee; Alpina, cafe selection, nonfat greek yogurt, vanilla latte to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 0–100 score range to Coffee Extract itself. The ingredient most often sits in the upper half of the list, and Desserts supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.

180 of 370 linked records have some flagged component

All 365 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 0–100 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.

Averaged label depth puts Coffee Extract in the upper half of the list (45% of list length, mean slot 9.3). 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.
