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.

How to use this page

Audit the co-occurring flags first

82% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Or Less Of Mono And Diglycerides as the trigger. Open records such as Bear Creek Caramel Ice Cream; Blue bunny, chocolate caramel cashew; Bon Suisse, Frozen Dairy Dessert, Neapolitan and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 89.9/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 68% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

82% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 61 of 61 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.
