Sucralose sits in the middle of the catalogue's frequency range, carried by 1.2% of the 894,137 US products recorded here. Among the 11 additives with a page here, Sucralose has the fifth-largest footprint, behind Carrageenan (18,307 products) and ahead of MSG (9,430). The mean position on the ingredient list is 13. Ingredient lists run in descending order of weight, so that is mid-label: past the base ingredients, ahead of the smallest-quantity additives. Its closest companion on a label is Acesulfame Potassium, which shows up on 43.1% of these labels against 1.8% of the catalogue at large, roughly 24 times its background rate, so the two are being formulated together rather than meeting by coincidence.
No state in our regulatory table records an action naming Sucralose. The FDA SAFFA record lists it as "Approved". CSPI's Chemical Cuisine classification for it is "Avoid", which is CSPI's rating, not PlainFoodSafe's.

Thirty of the 7,653 listable matches, ordered by how many flagged additives each label carries in total. Every row links to that product's own record.
Methodology
Matches come from the parsed ingredient links in the PlainFoodSafe database: a product counts here when its OpenFoodFacts ingredient list resolves to the Sucralose record. The headline 10,913 is every matching product in the catalogue; the 7,653 listable figure is the subset that also carries a usable product name and brand, which is what the tables above can show by name. Regulatory status is read from the FDA SAFFA extract and the state-action table; the rating word is CSPI's own classification. See the full methodology for how the catalogue is built and dated. The additive status we quote is the FDA's own, so read it at the source: Verify with FDA Substances Added to Food → Source: OpenFoodFacts, https://world.openfoodfacts.org/data
Caveats and limitations
OpenFoodFacts is crowdsourced, so coverage varies by category and brand and a label recorded here may be out of date relative to the product on the shelf today, because reformulation is common and this catalogue reflects the snapshot it was built from, not a live audit of packaging. Ingredient parsing normalises label spellings and can miss unusual ones, so treat the counts as a floor rather than a census. Presence on a label says nothing about quantity, and nothing on this page is a statement about whether any product is safe for any particular person to eat; for that, read the Sucralose source record and the named regulators directly.
