Mixed Triglycerides
Mixed Triglycerides appears in 76 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
Mixed Triglycerides appears in 76 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.
Reading this ingredient record
Audit the co-occurring flags first
60.5% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Mixed Triglycerides as the trigger. Open records such as Ball park, park's finest, beef frankfurters, slow smoked hickory; Beef Lo Mein; Beer Battered Mushrooms 4360 and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 85.9/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 70% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.
60.5% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient
Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 76 of 76 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.

What else is usually in the same product as Mixed Triglycerides
Across the 76 products on this site that list Mixed Triglycerides, 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. Sucralose shows up about 8.8x more often with Mixed Triglycerides than in the catalogue at large.
| Additive | Shared products | Share of Mixed Triglycerides products | Share of all products |
|---|---|---|---|

Questions readers ask about Mixed Triglycerides
How should I read safety signals when Mixed Triglycerides sits in heavily flagged products? ▼
