Motivation
editcontains nutritional data about generic foods (13807) and branded food products (453486). USDA NDB number (P1978) seems to be an entirely different id but the website provides a mapping to the FDC ID:
buttermilk (Q106612) → USDA NDB number (P1978) → 1088 → FDC ID → 2259792

- Support Very useful data. By the way, in the open source app Waistline (largest foss calorie tracker app) these can be used for generic foods (see here) – so far they aren't using Wikidata in any way. --Prototyperspective (talk) 15:44, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Prototyperspective: it is also used by OpenNutriTracker (Q127445131) which I actually discovered in your edits. I thought it would be nice if it could use images from wikimedia commons when selecting an FDC item. Thats why I proposed this property 😅 –Shisma (talk) 07:40, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
