Reading this ingredient record

Use prevalence before concern

Only 12.5% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Pasteurized Cows' Milk spans 12 named brands and is led by the Dairies group. Start with 3 Cheese Blend; Cheddar with whisky; Cheese when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 97.7/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.

12 named brands carry this ingredient

The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 17 of 30 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.
