FoodEssentials Q&A Thread

I guess I'll be the first to officially put a question here. Is there any particular browser that works best for these hits? I'm using chrome.

 

Pretty sure people are just going to continue asking questions in the other thread. LOLOL.

 

What if there is two amounts. Like one per serving and one for the whole bottle?

 

In Firefox very few pictures load.

 

i had lots of problems with pictures loading in chrome as well

 

Chrome would be the best. Good job

 

In Chrome I have to skip every 5 or so to get one that loads

 

They seem to be going as fast as Two lakes hits or something. I think some people must be attempting to scam them.

 

I'm having the strangest feeling of Deja vu...

When there are two amounts, like the per serving/bottle example you have given, please use the per serving amount.

 

Here's a little compilation of Q&A's gathered from the thread.

Can I submit a HIT if there's no label?

No. You're to return / skip the HIT if no label is present.

If something in the nutritional facts says less than x, should I just type in the number?

You're to format it as <x. So if you get protein is less than 5g, you'd just insert <5 in the corresponding protein box.

A lot of the pictures aren't loading! What can I do?

It's an issue on the requesters end. It'll be fixed when the new batch is released.

The last picture in the set refuses to enlarge! What can I do?

Yet another issue the requester will fix in the next batch.

When there are two columns for the nutritional facts that have cooked / uncooked, what column should I include in the HIT data?

When there are "unprepared" and "prepared" values listed - such as with cereals ("without milk" and "with milk") or baking mixes ("mix" and "prepared") please enter only the "unprepared" value(s)

When a field on a product says 0 (such as protien 0g), do I skip the field entire or actually put 0 in the field?

You're to put 0 in the field. If the field doesn't exist on the products nutritional facts at all, don't insert anything.

 

We do a lot of analytics work on the data you all give us. If people are scamming we'll find out.

Honestly, though, at this point it's going to be difficult to tell. There are problems on our end - like images not loading, instructions being unclear/incomplete, etc. We will get these issues straightened out quickly.

Until then, we'd like to stay positive and focus on all the great work you're doing, great questions you're asking, and great feedback you're providing.

 

I want to be sure I'm doing this correct. When it says 0 I put 0 (for example protein: 0), and I just skip the field if it's not listed on the food item at all?

 

That's correct.

 

Unless I missed it, I don't think my question from the previous thread got answered. If the nutrition label lists values for "Fiber" (but nothing for "Dietary Fiber" or "Soluble Fiber"), do we list those values under Dietary Fiber (since that one includes a place for percentage)? Or just not include them anywhere?

 

Absolutely correct

 

FoodEssentials, I really like you. This HIT is awesome and I look forward to working with you more in the future!
(Also, Potassium is misspelled as 'Potasium' in the nutrition panel)

 

I'm wondering this as well. I've been putting dietary while waiting for an answer.

 

I'm sorry I missed your question from the other thread!

If there are values for "Fiber", but nothing for either "Dietary" or "Soluble" fiber, please enter the values for "Fiber" into the fields for "Dietary Fiber".

 

Thank you - we look forward to working with you more in the future!

We'll work on correcting that spelling mistake as well, thanks
