Condensed Skim Milk

Condensed Skim Milk appears in 587 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

Condensed Skim Milk appears in 587 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.

What this page can and cannot answer

Audit the co-occurring flags first

56.6% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Condensed Skim Milk as the trigger. Open records such as 2 King Size Rolls; 365 everyday value, low fat milk; 400 Midgees and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 81.1/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 31% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

56.6% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 562 of 586 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.

Averaged label depth puts Condensed Skim Milk in the upper half of the list (31% of list length, mean slot 8.1). Compound ingredients and OCR noise mean this cannot stand in for quantity.

Ranks use Open Food Facts ingredient rows on this site’s refresh cycle. 247,206 ingredients with ≥1 product appearance enter the ranking. Prevalence and list depth are catalog facts, not toxicology.
