FOOD LION: 26 tracked products, an average ingredient safety score of 4.1 out of 5 — Low-Risk-to-Safe territory on regulatory grounds. The three most represented product categories are Undefined, Dairies, Fermented foods (10 category labels). Nutri-Score spans 4 of 5 rating bands. Scoring methodology →

A brand-level safety profile aggregates every tracked product we associate with this brand, then summarizes how the safety scores of their ingredients are distributed across that catalog. The standing shown here reflects the additives recorded for these products in Open Food Facts, matched against current FDA and EU regulatory status — it is not an endorsement, a certification, or an independent laboratory finding. Formulations change over time and regional variants differ, so a specific item on a shelf may not match the aggregate above. Read the actual ingredient list printed on packaging before making a purchasing decision, and treat a low score as a prompt to look closer rather than a definitive verdict on a brand.
