Reading this ingredient record
Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood
This is a mixed product neighborhood: 13 of 39 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare Catskill Provisions, Artisanal Handcrafted Chocolate Honey Truffles; Classics Cocoa Dusted Belgian Truffles Premium Candy; Dark chocolate mint and cookie bits to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 0–100 score range to Soy Lecithin As Emulsifier itself. The ingredient most often sits in the upper half of the list, and Snacks supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.
13 of 39 linked records have some flagged component
All 39 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 0–100 score spread more informative than the average alone: investigate the low end, identify the actual flagged row, and compare it with a similar unflagged formulation before drawing a conclusion.
Next check: pair one flagged product with a similar unflagged product from the same shelf category.
