In this video for the YouTube channel Memeable Data, I analyzed the price and nutritional facts of 11000 products of a Dutch supermarket (Albert Heijn) and tried to determine if vegan food is cheaper than animal-based food.
The conclusions were:
- Vegan food generally has the cheapest sources of calories and protein
- However, for certain macronutrient requirements (e.g high protein or low carb percentage) the cheapest sources of protein can be animal-based
In this repository you can find:
- Data with the nutritional facts of Albert Heijn's products
- Python script to scrape the data from the Albert Heijn website. Note that the script is no longer up to date
- Jupyter Notebook with data analysis
