1 **Mixed safety profile.** 0 safe, 16 caution, 0 avoid. This intersection has a range — scan the food cards below to pick the safest options.
2 **Big oxalate range.** The spread is 28 to 99 mg per serving — a 71 mg difference. Best pick: **Flour** (28 mg). Most caution needed: **Legumes** (99 mg).
