Using this value

Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (5777) or the full path ("Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Cooking & Baking Ingredients > Cooking Wine"). 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.

SKU-1001	Your product title	"Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Cooking & Baking Ingredients > Cooking Wine"

This path contains a comma, so the cell has to be quoted: unquoted, a CSV reader splits "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Cooking & Baking Ingredients > Cooking Wine" into 2 columns and the row stops lining up with its header. The numeric ID, 5777, contains no comma.

These sit under the same parent and start with the same word, which is exactly when the wrong one gets picked.

Questions about Cooking Wine

What is the Google product category ID for Cooking Wine?

5777. The full path, "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Cooking & Baking Ingredients > Cooking Wine", 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 Cooking Wine available?

No. Cooking Wine is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 4, so 5777 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 Cooking Wine sit in the taxonomy?

At level 4, under Cooking & Baking Ingredients (2660). The chain from the top is Food, Beverages & Tobacco → Food Items → Cooking & Baking Ingredients → Cooking Wine. If your product does not belong under Cooking & Baking Ingredients, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.

What should I use if Cooking Wine is not quite right?

Look across the rest of Cooking & Baking Ingredients first — there are 35 other categories at this level: Baking Chips (6754), Baking Chocolate (5776), Baking Flavors & Extracts (5775), Baking Mixes (2572), Baking Powder (2803), Baking Soda (5774), and 29 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Cooking & Baking Ingredients (2660) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.

How big is Cooking Wine compared with the categories next to it?

It is 21th largest of the 36 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.

What is the difference between Cooking Wine and Cooking Oils?

They sit side by side under Cooking & Baking Ingredients and start with the same word, which is why they get swapped. Cooking Wine is 5777; Cooking Oils is 2126. The paths are the reliable way to tell them apart — compare "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Cooking & Baking Ingredients > Cooking Wine" with "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Cooking & Baking Ingredients > Cooking Oils" before you submit.
