Example prompt: Can you explain what 'pasture-raised' and 'free-range' actually mean on egg cartons — are these terms regulated by the government or just marketing, and what's the real difference between them?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a user asks what a specific food label or packaging claim actually means, especially to distinguish legally regulated certifications from unregulated marketing language. Prefer over general web search when you need a structured, authoritative explanation of common food label terms like 'natural', 'organic', 'free-range', 'pasture-raised', 'grass-fed', or 'humanely raised'.

## Known failure modes

- Label term not recognized or not in database — returns empty or 404
- Ambiguous label term with multiple interpretations — may return generalized explanation
- Highly niche or regional certifications may not be covered
- Network timeout if service is unavailable
