Products with several byproducts

Several lists of ingredients and several nutritional tables; multiproduct packs.

Identical products with different branding

Hundreds of products are only different in their brands and distributors, having the same ingredients, nutritional composition, weights, formats... For example:

Products with same bar code

  • Images of 4 different products have been uploaded for (see product 5901234123457 m). I can't confirm any of these with a simple web search. This EAN is also often used for illustration purposes on e.g. Wikipedia and Python sample code
    • Terrafrika One Cola,
    • Bridelice cream or milk (not sure),
    • Eggo Waffles
    • "Diamond" dietary supplement
  • 20408466
    • ASDA 15 eggs
    • Crackers goût Pizza Crusti Croc (LIDL)
  • Mineral waters with the same brand and codebar but from different mineral springs (and with different mineral composition).

Aldi's products

Lidl's products

Dia's products

Products with two barcodes

Products with an EAN without the barcode

Products with strange nutritional information

There is a label for incorrect information nutritional facts, as linked here.

Other noteworthy products

  • (see product 5000242452693 m): "Slow cooked tender prime steak in a rich gravy infused with Guiness beer, baked in a unique Holland's golden shortcrust pie" (21 words, 123 characters) is probably the longest product name we stumbled upon.
  • (see product 5601009942268 m): In response to above, a case like this could also be noted: "Especialidade fermentada à base de soja com alperces (4,4%), sumo de pêssego concentrado (4%) e pêssegos (2,6%) enriquecida com cálcio e vitaminas" (22 words, 146 characters).
  • (see product 8901491101844 m): Two ingredients lists, one on an importer's sticker. Importer's sticker is more specific, but manufacturer's list includes an E-code for an unlisted ingredient (160b).
  • (see product 9100000819136 m): Diabetic information in nutrition facts.
  • (see product 22148186 m) : Veggie Aufschnitt in two flavors
  • (see product 4311596460434 m): Product by several producers (DE NI 010 EG and DE NI 059 EG) with different nutritions and labels (DLG 2012). Might be they changed producers, but Edeka probably sells enough units to need more than one producer at the same time.
  • (see product 4300175075589 m): Mineral water from several water sources (Noe-Quelle, Quintus-Quelle) with different nutrition values. Also only one is "Natriumarm".

Products with different ingredients in multiple languages

Additionally:

  • (see product 5449000011527 m): Swiss Fanta has the same barcode as the French Fanta manu1400 but it looks like (the picture is blurred) that the ingredients are different
  • (see product 7612100054994 m): Ovomaltine has the same barcode but different Nutrition Facts between FR version and IT/ES/PT version (see pictures)
  • (see product 3083680002875 m): Bonduelle canned sweet corn seems to have different data in Russia and Georgia.

Products with small item-dependent variations

Products with multiple possible sets of ingredients

  • (see product 4810268024313 m): the letter (which is to be found near the dates on the cap) is in parentheses after the ingredient.
  • (see product 4601512006724 m): same, but no comma ("или" means "or"), and there is an asterisk after the letter.

Variable nutrition data

Products whose packaging, ingredients or nutritional facts have changed

Products for which the barcode stays the same, but package, ingredients or nutritional values changed.

Since the end of 2021, we now have specific properties to list products which have been reformulated: reformulated and reformulated:description.

Some examples of products whose packaging has changed:

Products with a Nutri-Score that has improved over time

Asked a lot by journalists, we should have a couple of examples to showcase:

You can find other examples in the list of products using the reformulated:description property: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/property/reformulated:description.

Products with custom barcodes

Some picture is drawn in the barcode (may need to see the full uncropped pictures):

Restricted Circulation Number barcodes don't seem to be allowed in the above key list, yet, there are cases too:

Additionally, some other products may also look like a case of barcode art, but not having the actual barcode affected, they must be technically excluded:

Other

Also see, French cases:
