Ingredients with note containing amount not parsed #25

Open wvengen opened 3 months ago

wvengen commented 3 months ago

The ingredient declaration

Pork, Paprika, Salt, Maize Dextrose, Maize Dextrin, Garlic, Paprika Oil, Stabiliser: Pentasodium Triphosphate, Antioxidant: Sodium Erythorbate, Preservative: Sodium Nitrite, Filled into natural Pork casings, Prepared with 120g of Pork per 100g of product

is not parsed at all by the strict parser.

This is because of the "120g" in the last 'ingredient' (that is a note, but not recognised as such, because syntaxically it is part of the ingredients). A smaller example that shows this issue is:

a, x 1g z

This could also be solved with #18 (recognizing it as an ingredient note).
