Organic Spring Mix

Organic Spring Mix appears in 171 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

Organic Spring Mix appears in 171 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.

11%
Of the way down the captured list, averaged across the 171 products listing it (mean slot 7.4). Organic Spring Mix usually falls near the top of the captured list; this position does not measure its amount because source formatting, compound ingredients and labeling exceptions vary.

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 this page can and cannot answer

Use prevalence before concern

Only 18.7% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Organic Spring Mix spans 42 named brands and is led by the Salted-snacks group. Start with 50/50 BLEND; 50/50 Blend Mix of Baby Lettuces & Spinach; 50/50 Blend spinach & spring mix leaves when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 97.2/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.

42 named brands carry this ingredient

The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 104 of 105 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.

What else is usually in the same product as Organic Spring Mix

Across the 171 products on this site that list Organic Spring Mix, 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. Sodium Nitrite shows up about 4.6x more often with Organic Spring Mix than in the catalogue at large.
