Research notes

A direct WebFetch of the live product page returned nutrition figures of 71 kcal / 8.9g protein / 1.6g fat / 11.9g carbs / 0g salt (matching the standard figures seen across nearly all other products in this set). However, an earlier web search summary (not a full page fetch) reported different nutrition figures for this same product: 97 kcal, 9.2g protein, 1.6g fat, 11.6g carbohydrates, 0.005g salt equivalent. Both are recorded here as a contradiction since the source could not be reconciled with certainty in this session.
