Juice Concentrate
Juice Concentrate appears in 177 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
Juice Concentrate appears in 177 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.
Juice Concentrate sits in the busiest tenth of the catalog (#2,104 / 247,206)
- Usage rank
- #2,104
- of 247,206 ingredients that appear in at least one catalogued product, tied with 8 others that also appear in exactly 177 products, listed in more products than 99.1% of them.
- Typical depth in an ingredient list
- 42%
- Of the way down the captured list, averaged across the 177 products listing it (mean slot 6.6). Juice Concentrate usually falls in the upper half of the list; this position does not measure its amount because source formatting, compound ingredients and labeling exceptions vary.
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.
How to use this page
Use prevalence before concern
Only 13.6% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Juice Concentrate spans 80 named brands and is led by the Plant-based foods and beverages group. Start with 100% Apple Juice from Concentrate; 100% Grape Juice Blend Drink; 100% Juice when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 96.1/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.
80 named brands carry this ingredient
The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 127 of 168 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.
What else is usually in the same product as Juice Concentrate
Across the 177 products on this site that list Juice Concentrate, these flagged additives appear alongside it most often. The comparison column is how often each one appears across every product with a parsed ingredient list, so the two figures are measured over the same set.
| Additive | Shared products | Share of Juice Concentrate products | Share of all products |
|---|---|---|---|
| Caramel Coloring | 8 | 4.5% | 5.7% |
| Blue 1 | 7 | 4% | 4.2% |
| Sucralose | 5 | 2.8% | 2.7% |
| Carrageenan | 5 | 2.8% | 4.5% |
| Red 40 | 5 | 2.8% | 5.4% |
Co-occurrence describes what manufacturers formulate together. It is not a claim that these additives interact, and it carries no regulatory meaning. Counted over products with parsed ingredient lists; Open Food Facts, 2026-09-01.
