Products with strange nutritional information

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

Products with different ingredients across languages

In this regard, it's worth thinking about the ingredient lactase in lactose-free products.

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 variable ingredients and nutrition facts

Variable 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 facts

Other noteworthy products

  • (see product 3344290321344 m): Product that appears to feature two barcodes.
  • (see product 8410223800165 m) and (see product 8410223607139 m): Products with an additional barcode given only for a certain country.
  • (see product 3256223671030 m): Product with an EAN code without, however, the barcode.
  • (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".
  • (see product 5600162630807 m) and (see product 5600162630821 m): These are the same cheeses, but one has oregano – despite that, the nutritional facts and ingredient lists are the very same.
  • (see product 8801005306898 m): E964 - Sirop de polyglycitol wasn't allowed in Europe before 2012 (see this)
  • (see product 3191220000530 m): An American label product imported into France.
  • (see product 8901161105288 m): An American label product with an Italian distributor label, sold in Portugal without a Portuguese label translation.
  • (see product 5601312101154 m): This product is labelled as having a cartonboard box to be placed in the blue recycle bin, but it doesn't actually have that packaging, having a plastic wrapper instead.
  • (see product 2637412247105 m): This demi-chevreau meat features a Lapin de France label.
  • (see product 3173287528578 m): Named "Liqueur eggs," the product has no liqueur, however.
  • (see product 5410046013622 m): The ingredients percentage reaches 106% on this product.
  • (see product 5601002044730 m): This Auchan meat product has, in the ingredient listing, the type of meat highlighted in bold text, adding to the emphasis given to it having a protected designation of origin, even though the use of bold in the ingredients list is usually reserved to highlight allergens, conflictingly.

Products with the longest generic names

  • (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.

In response to above:

Products with decorated barcodes

Some products have decorated artistically stylized barcodes. As product pictures aren't fully publicly visible on Open Food Facts, these barcodes are usually only accessed in the edit area with the full and original listing of uploaded pictures that each product has.

Some other products may also seem to feature decorated barcodes, but not having the actual barcode affected, they can't be technically considered. In their case, it's only the area surrounding the barcode that is decorated, just as any other area on the package can be decorated too.

Products whose packaging, ingredients, nutritional facts or Nutri-Score have changed

Some products, keeping their barcode unchanged, have their package, ingredients or nutritional values changed. In fact, this happens with all products in general. Also, some products have their Nutri-Score value changed at a given point, which can be noted down for reference.
