Data cleaning & edits:

• Excluded all neutral tasting oils (canola, corn, grapeseed, sunflower, vegetable, refined soybean, refined olive oil) and fish' own liquid used for preservation rather than taste (e.g. mussel broth or nectar). Salt and brine (salt water) were also excluded, as they 'deepen' flavors but don't add any distinct flavors on their own.
• All peppers of the species Capsicum Annuum except bell peppers were renamed chili (e.g. azorean pepper became azorean chili) to distinguish from pepper made from peppercorns (e.g. ground black pepper).
• Product descriptions and ingredient lists on the store's website were referenced to fill a few missing values in its Google Sheet data (e.g. sugar and garlic).
• Removed all sauce products that contain no fish.
• Minor typo, value formatting issues, and naming inconsistencies were corrected.

After the above edits, these brands were excluded as they were found to carry no added flavors:
