Scraping the USDA Branded Food Products Online Database
Project Title: Scraping the USDA Branded Food Products Online Database
Project Description:
The USDA provides free, publically available ingredient, food product, and nutrition data.
While ingredient and nutrition data are downloadable as a database, the Branded Food Products database is not. The USDA plans to provide downloadable files sometime within 2017.
We have an immediate need for Branded Food Product data and requests that this information be harvested from the USDA website.
Location of the Data
URL: https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/search/list
Parameters: from the “Select Source” dropdown box, select “Branded Food Products”
Only the Branded Food Products is needed. The “Standard Reference” data is not needed. For each of the returned products, nutrition information is available as well as a list of ingredients from the main product link. This information is required as well.
Delivery Format
A standard CSV format is desired with special characters such as single quotes (‘) and double quotes (“) properly escaped with a backslash. The data may be separated into multiple files to manage the size.
