Benchmarks prevent category mistakes.
A score is most useful when its comparison set is clear. Reviews category pages rank products within the same shelf and link back to the underlying scorecards.
Category benchmarks
How grocery shelves compare
A category benchmark makes an individual score more honest: ramen should be compared with ramen, and cottage cheese with cottage cheese.

Three findings worth carrying forward.
The two averages answer different questions.
Reviews Score summarizes product appeal; Health Score summarizes available label and nutrition signals. Neither is silently substituted for the other.
Ingredient filters remain literal.
The seed-oil percentage reports whether a matched oil term appears in available ingredient evidence. It does not make a toxicity or medical claim.
Methodology
What this report can and cannot say.
- The underlying offline snapshot contained 179,913 product records.
- 88,105 records passed completed-score, image, evidence, and analysis checks; 1,600 high-value records form the public research sample.
- Figures describe the selected Reviews sample, not every grocery product sold in the United States. Percentages are rounded and should not be interpreted as population-wide nutrition estimates.
