Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (6219) or the full path ("Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit"). 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 | 6219 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit" |
This path contains a comma, so the cell has to be quoted: unquoted, a CSV reader splits "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit" into 2 columns and the row stops lining up with its header. The numeric ID, 6219, contains no comma.
Questions about Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit
What is the Google product category ID for Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit?
6219. The full path, "Food, Beverages & Tobacco > Food Items > Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit", 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 Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit available?
No. Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 3, so 6219 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 Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit sit in the taxonomy?
At level 3, under Food Items (422). The chain from the top is Food, Beverages & Tobacco → Food Items → Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit. 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 Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit is not quite right?

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 Candied & Chocolate Covered Fruit compared with the categories next to it?
