How to interpret this product record.
This page is a comparison aid for food products, not a toxin-free certification. Use the score with the source, test year, contaminant fields, packaging context, and safer alternatives before making a purchase decision.
The most useful next step is to compare Whole Foods Tomatoes against other food products records with stronger source confidence. A low score with clear source fields should be treated as a priority review signal, while a higher score with unknown source, year, or contaminant fields should still be checked before relying on it. Subscribe or request a retest when the record is important to a daily-use product, child-use product, or food-contact decision.
