Sample: 38 products matched to the soda & soft drinks category by product name among items scanned by BannedPantry users — a convenience sample of what real shoppers scan, not a random sample of the category. Ingredients are matched against additives banned, restricted, or warning-labeled by the EU, UK, Canada, Japan, or California (Prop 65 / OEHHA); every flag on a product page links to its primary regulatory source. Verdicts recompute daily.
