Using this value

Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (433) or the full path ("Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Nuts & Seeds"). Both are predefined values for the same category. The ID is the sturdier of the two, because renaming any segment above this one changes the path text and leaves the number alone.

Bear in mind that google_product_category is an optional attribute. Google assigns a category automatically, and your value is treated as a signal rather than an override. When an override actually applies.

In your feed, it looks like this

Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.

id	title	google_product_category

SKU-1001	Your product title	"Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Nuts & Seeds"

This path contains a comma, so the cell has to be quoted: unquoted, a CSV reader splits "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Nuts & Seeds" into 2 columns and the row stops lining up with its header. The numeric ID, 433, contains no comma.

Questions about Nuts & Seeds

What is the Google product category ID for Nuts & Seeds?

433. The full path, "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Nuts & Seeds", is the same category written the other way. The ID is shorter, and renaming a segment above this one changes the path text while leaving the number alone.

Is anything more specific than Nuts & Seeds available?

No. Nuts & Seeds is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 3, so 433 is the most precise value this branch offers. If it does not describe your product closely enough, the answer is a different branch, not a deeper one.

Where does Nuts & Seeds sit in the taxonomy?

At level 3, under Food Items (422). The chain from the top is Food, Beverages & Tobacco → Food Items → Nuts & Seeds. If your product does not belong under Food Items, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.

What should I use if Nuts & Seeds is not quite right?

Look across the rest of Food Items first — there are 18 other categories at this level: Bakery (1876), Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit (6219), Candy & Chocolate (4748), Condiments & Sauces (427), Cooking & Baking Ingredients (2660), Dairy Products (428), and 12 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Food Items (422) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.

How big is Nuts & Seeds compared with the categories next to it?

It is 15th largest of the 19 at its level, carrying 0 categories below it. A bigger category is not a better one — it just means more of the taxonomy is still open below you after you pick it.
