What

  • Language code no is for spoken Norwegian, there are two ways to write it, the main one seems to be nb
  • See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian
  • "The Norwegian language, including the two official written forms:
    • Bokmål, literally "book language", used by 85–90% of the population of Norway
    • Nynorsk, literally "New Norwegian", used by 10–15% of the population of Norway"

It seems that no.openfoodfacts only has nb as language. However the products are in norsk and not bokmål. There is an issue?
