This is a very interesting suggestion. One one hand I’m trying to keep the product form as simple as possible, so that products can be added as quickly and effortlessly as possible. And on the other hand, more information is better.
Maybe we could try to offer an alternate representation of the list of ingredients, in a table as you suggest. The table view would be constructed from the plain text data, and contributors could add extra information like origin, whether the ingredient is organic, from fair trade etc. or not.
It’s not as easy as it sounds though, as sometimes the ingredients list contain sub-ingredients etc. so the table might not always work.Katrina Lewinski

I would like this information as well. I know China has a reputation for allowing heavy metals into food products, and as a consumer with chronic illnesses, I have concerns about accidentally ingesting something like this.
I also try to stay on the eco-friendly side of things, but living in Michigan, frozen and canned produce gets purchased. Carbon foorprint comes secondary to potentially harmful substances from countries with little or no regulation for food products, though.
