Description

The Dutch institute Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu has compiled a database with ingredient information on more than 2,200 food products. The data in this package is only a processed fraction of the huge and very interesting NEVO database available at https://www.rivm.nl/documenten/nevo-online-versie.

Format

data frame: 2207 obs. of 9 variables

Details

The preprocessed data can be used to reproduce the charts from the book Wykresy od kuchni (Chart runners) https://github.com/BetaAndBit/Charts

Note that data frames food, food_max, food_mini, food_all have product names in English, while food_pl, food_max_pl, food_mini_pl, food_all_pl have product names in Polish.
