We are not scraping nutrition_information for desktop searches.

This is not the case for mobile searches:

For reference, these items on desktop are pulled under knowledge_graph.list:

Some discussion might be required on whether or not this needs to be a separate nutrition_information and target those details under knowledge_graph.nutrition_information. (Would also need to remove these from standard list to avoid double parsing)

Thoughts @hilmanski @Alaa-abdulridha ?

Yes, for the record, the items are also pulled under knowledge_graph.list for the mobile version:

Thanks for reporting the issue, @vedovati-matteo. If a feature or bug was not reported by a user and is not urgent, it should have status: freezer.

A user reported that we’re no longer returning Google Nutrition Information (docs). However, it appears that Google may have deprecated this SERP feature entirely—I haven’t been able to retrieve the nutrition table in recent searches.

Given the above, I will queue this issue as I believe scraping the data similar to our Google Nutrition Information docs would be beneficial. Scraping this as knowledge_graph.nutrition_information instead of a list as @btaunt mentioned.

We now parse the nutrition_information under desktop searches for Google Search API:
