recently food.get.v4 started returning errors for many food items that were previously existing

Recently I can't seem to find a lot of food items by food_id using food.get.v4 that I was able to find before. For example, food_id 1338833 (Tesco Raspberries) returns

{'error': {'code': 106, 'message': "Invalid ID: food_id '1338833' does not exist"}}

whereas previously it returned { "food": { "food_id": "1338833", "food_name": "Raspberries", "brand_name": "Tesco", "food_type": "Brand", "food_url": "https://www.fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/gb/tesco/raspberries/100g", "servings": { "serving": [ { "serving_id": "1329227", "serving_description": "100g", "serving_url": "https://www.fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/gb/tesco/raspberries/100g", "metric_serving_amount": "100.000", "metric_serving_unit": "g", "number_of_units": "1.000", "measurement_description": "serving", "calories": "32", "carbohydrate": "4.60", "protein": "1.40", "fat": "0.30", "saturated_fat": "0.100", "sodium": "0", "fiber": "2.5", "sugar": "4.60" } ] } } }

Some food_id-s still return data as normal, e.g. 35718

Is anybody else having this problem? Could it be region specific, e.g. something wrong with the UK database?

Hi Theo,

Thanks for reaching out. All foods are region specific so you need access to the respective region/country in order to access these foods.
