Tomato Soup

Tomato Soup appears in 6 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

Tomato Soup appears in 6 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.

Averaged label depth puts Tomato Soup near the top of the captured list (0% of list length, mean slot 1.0). Compound ingredients and OCR noise mean this cannot stand in for quantity.

Derived by this site from the ingredient lists of every catalogued product (Open Food Facts), recomputed on each data refresh. 247,206 ingredients have at least one appearance and are ranked here. Usage and list position describe prevalence, not safety.

Reading this ingredient record

Use prevalence before concern

Only 16.7% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Tomato Soup spans 1 named brands and is led by the Condiments group. Start with Dorothy lynch; HOME STYLE DRESSING & CONDIMENT; Light & Lean Dressing & Condiment when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 95.0/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.

1 named brands carry this ingredient

The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 6 of 6 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.

How do the sampled products compare?

Each point is one of the 6 sampled products listed below: its overall safety score against how many separately flagged ingredients its label carries. Bubble size is the number of ingredient rows the label actually resolved to.
