Ground Chia Seeds

Ground Chia Seeds appears in 94 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

Ground Chia Seeds appears in 94 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.

of 247,206 ingredients that appear in at least one catalogued product, tied with 26 others that also appear in exactly 94 products, listed in more products than 98.7% of them.
Typical depth in an ingredient list
48%
Averaged label depth puts Ground Chia Seeds in the upper half of the list (48% of list length, mean slot 8.7). 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.

What this page can and cannot answer

A clean co-occurrence count is not a safety clearance

No linked product currently contains a separately flagged ingredient, but zero co-occurrence is an absence-of-evidence result, not regulatory approval. The practical reading is about use: Ground Chia Seeds reaches 19 named brands, most often appears under Snacks, and typically sits in the upper half of the list. Product examples include All natural protein cookie; All natural protein cookie; Banana, White Beans, Strawberry and Super Chia. Check the current label and authoritative source databases when the decision involves allergies, dosage, pregnancy, or a medical condition.

0% of linked products currently carry a separately flagged ingredient

Most NOVA-tagged examples land in Group 4 (68 of 89), yet the products span unrelated categories. That contrast matters: processing class can describe how a food was made while saying nothing decisive about this ingredient's regulatory status. Use the linked examples to understand formulation context, and leave the unanswered toxicology or individual-sensitivity question unanswered.

Next check: verify the unresolved source rating directly instead of converting zero co-flags into reassurance.
