Expeller Pressed Sunflower Oil
Expeller Pressed Sunflower Oil appears in 452 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
Expeller Pressed Sunflower Oil appears in 452 catalogued products, but this snapshot has no FDA SAFFA status or CSPI Chemical Cuisine rating attached to it.

What this page can and cannot answer
Use prevalence before concern
Only 5.5% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Expeller Pressed Sunflower Oil spans 122 named brands and is led by the Snacks group. Start with 100% Expeller Pressed Sunflower Oil; 100% Whole Wheat Bread; 19 grain bread, 19 grain when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 99.4/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.
122 named brands carry this ingredient
The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 260 of 431 classified products, leaving a meaningful remainder elsewhere. This breadth is why the page reports label depth, category, and product examples separately. Those dimensions help locate comparable products; combining them into a stronger safety claim would hide the variation the catalog actually contains.
Next check: compare label position across two brands before treating prevalence as equivalent exposure.
