The verdict

Organic Balsamic Vinegar by Lieber's has no parsed ingredient label in the OpenFoodFacts snapshot we use. Its 100/100 score means no flagged ingredients were found, not that the product has a verified clean label. FDA SAFFA and CSPI data cannot assess an absent list; check the package, manufacturer information, and official recall notices for current allergy, dietary, or safety decisions.

What the Data Says About Organic Balsamic Vinegar

Organic Balsamic Vinegar by Lieber's carries a composite safety score of 100/100, which we classify as "Safe" on our four-tier shelf-label framework.

The score is computed by mapping each labeled ingredient against FDA Substances Added to Food (SAFFA) regulatory status and CSPI Chemical Cuisine classifications, then penalizing the overall product for each additive rated as caution-or-worse. Product data originates from the OpenFoodFacts collaborative catalog; safety annotations come from federal regulators and the Center for Science in the Public Interest. This score is a transparent derived index we compute from that public data, not an official FDA rating or endorsement; see the Methodology page for the exact weighting.

No ingredient label data is available for this product in the OpenFoodFacts collaborative database, so no scan against FDA SAFFA or CSPI Chemical Cuisine data could be performed. The score shown is a default, not a clean-label signal -- check the product's physical packaging or the manufacturer's site for its actual ingredient list.

On the NOVA processing scale, Organic Balsamic Vinegar is classified as Group 2 (Processed ingredients). NOVA measures industrial processing intensity rather than ingredient-level safety, so it complements the SAFFA and CSPI ratings: a product can be clean on additive flags but heavily processed, or lightly processed but carry individually flagged ingredients. Combining both lenses gives a fuller picture than either alone.
