What the Data Says About Maxfeild's, Assorted Chocolate, Coconut Cream, Buttery Caramel, Raspberry Cream, Strawberry Cream, Buttery Caramel, Orange Cream, Peanut Cluster, Chocolate Cream, Lemon Cream, Maple Cream, Butter Rum

Maxfeild's, Assorted Chocolate, Coconut Cream, Buttery Caramel, Raspberry Cream, Strawberry Cream, Buttery Caramel, Orange Cream, Peanut Cluster, Chocolate Cream, Lemon Cream, Maple Cream, Butter Rum by Famous Brands International carries a composite safety score of 40/100, which we classify as "Avoid" 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.

Our scan identified 4 flagged ingredients in this product, components that at least one official source has classified as requiring caution, targeted avoidance, or further evaluation. Flagged ingredients are the items most likely to surface in FDA inspection findings, state-level ingredient bans, or outbreak-related recall notices, so the per-ingredient breakdown below is the most useful lens for anyone screening this product for a specific dietary concern.

On the NOVA processing scale, Maxfeild's, Assorted Chocolate, Coconut Cream, Buttery Caramel, Raspberry Cream, Strawberry Cream, Buttery Caramel, Orange Cream, Peanut Cluster, Chocolate Cream, Lemon Cream, Maple Cream, Butter Rum is classified as Group 4 (Ultra-processed). 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. The Nutri-Score grade of E reflects nutritional balance, calories, saturated fat, sugar, sodium versus fiber, protein, and produce content, which again is a distinct dimension from additive safety and worth weighing alongside the scores above.
