Palm And Palm Kernel Oil

Palm And Palm Kernel Oil appears in 966 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

Palm And Palm Kernel Oil appears in 966 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.

How to use this page

Audit the co-occurring flags first

54.6% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Palm And Palm Kernel Oil as the trigger. Open records such as 30% Vegetable Oil Spread; Ahold chewy dipped granola bars peanut butter; Ahold, chocolate dunker cookies, natural flavor and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 75.3/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 39% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

54.6% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 956 of 965 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.

of 247,206 ingredients that appear in at least one catalogued product, tied with 2 others that also appear in exactly 971 products, listed in more products than 99.7% of them.
Typical depth in an ingredient list

Averaged label depth puts Palm And Palm Kernel Oil in the upper half of the list (39% of list length, mean slot 14.7). 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 else is usually in the same product as Palm And Palm Kernel Oil

Across the 966 products on this site that list Palm And Palm Kernel Oil, these flagged additives appear alongside it most often.
