Crushed Garlic
Crushed Garlic appears in 174 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
Crushed Garlic appears in 174 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: 51 of 174 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare All-purpose sauce; Annie chun's, asian sauces; Beef Pot Roast to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 30–100 score range to Crushed Garlic itself. The ingredient most often sits in the lower half of the list, and Condiments supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.
51 of 174 linked records have some flagged component
All 170 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 30–100 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.
