Keep both statements
Cheerios materials have a soluble-fiber discrepancy between promotional copy and the readable nutrition panel. Life SmartLabel warns that a non-scanned page may reflect another version. Preserve attribution rather than average numbers or invent a corrected label. We use supported fields and keep unresolved details visible.
A price conflict can be an identity error
The 3.98 Walmart figure encountered in Frosted Flakes research belonged to recommendation products rather than selected Original 13.5 oz. It was excluded. A direct verification response also was not product content. A clearly identified Kroger quote with location and unavailable fulfillment replaced that unsupported assumption.
Build a source packet
Save code, size, flavor, readable panel, URL, observation time and any real update date supplied. A literal date-template placeholder is not an update date. Keep old and new versions separately when formulas differ. This supports later correction without losing why a previous statement was used.
Ask the unresolved question
If purchase depends on a current panel, maker clarification or the actual package may be needed. Editorial records cannot replace that evidence. No independent laboratory test or full nutrition review is claimed. The result is a shortlist with known fields and visible unknowns, rather than a falsely complete composite profile.
Separate access and evidence status
A successful HTTP response can still contain only a verification screen or a JavaScript shell. That is not a readable nutrition panel. We distinguish those access results from manufacturer SmartLabel sections and actually viewed panel images. This prevents an access log from becoming a false claim that the complete product label was checked. The source ledger preserves the restricted or incomplete status for later review.
Sources & scope
Checked November 5, 2026. Manufacturer and retailer references support the specific statements. Dated displayed prices are not final checkout quotes, performance rankings or performance testing. This shopping reference does not replace the exact product label or qualified individual advice. Current received labels and independent food/nutrition/content/commerce review remain pending.
