      I like this base as a start, but would love if we had nutritional data for Freebase data typed "Food" (Food & Drink) base... the US government has a lot of this data to start, but I guess there might be efforts to input this elsewhere.

        We've just begun to load nutrition data in the Food base, in the last couple of days.  Right now we only have breakfast cereal but we're working on getting more in there.

        Awesome. Have y'all thought about integrating this US data set?

         http://www.ars.usda.gov/Services/docs.htm?docid=8964

         Over 7,400 items. Do you folks have scripts to help this bulk import, or do you do it by hand?
