Generic errors
Categorisation errors
- Single ingredient check:
- Brazil nuts(unsalted) should only contain the ingredient Brazil nuts;
- Opposites:
- Unshelled Brazil nuts and Shelled Brazil nuts should not be assigned simultaneously;
- Brazil nuts(salted) and Brazil nuts(unsalted) should not be assigned simultaneously;
- Oneside opposites:
These are categories which are incompatible and which are often due to adding an ingredient as a category:
- Mixed nuts - to suppress adding all the different nuts in mixed nuts;
- Chocolate covered Brazil nuts - to suppress chocolate covered brazil nuts;
