What the data can answer

Pepperoni Made With Pork appears in 301 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.

What this page can and cannot answer

Audit the co-occurring flags first

99.3% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Pepperoni Made With Pork as the trigger. Open records such as 1/2 Cheese Pizza & 1/2 Pepperoni Pizza; 4 Meat TombStone Pizza; Ahold, self-rising crust, supreme pizza and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 53.0/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 54% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

99.3% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 299 of 299 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.
