The coffee description is what made me think about this.
They may have made a new category that would included both cans and bags of the same size range. We buy our coffee at Costco, so ours would have to be captured in another category entirely.
I think you are right.
I think this is some old "expired" category. When I pull data for this category number, the last data is from 1988?
So there must be another category its reporting under.
