2 H2R program active only in U.S. and Canada. As of mid-2023, we have converted all our packaging to include the H2R

When possible, we are shifting away from non-recyclable materials, like certain
types of plastic, to more recyclable materials, like paper. For example, on snack
multipacks we previously used plastic bag-in-bag packaging and trays with shrink
wrap that required special plastic film recycling. These materials have been ... | Campbells_51 |
In 2023, we transitioned all our V8 products from a vendible bottle,
which could not be recycled, to an active-hinge bottle, which has a
full-wrap label. As a result, our consumers can now recycle
approximately 800,000 additional pounds of plastic, equivalent to
roughly 11 million bottles, per year.

ConTEB - ESG Reports
This dataset is part of ConTEB (Context-aware Text Embedding Benchmark), designed for evaluating contextual embedding model capabilities. It focuses on the theme of Industrial ESG Reports, particularly stemming from the fast-food industry.
Dataset Summary
This dataset was designed to elicit contextual information. It is built upon a subset of the ViDoRe Benchmark. To build the corpus, we start from the pre-existing collection of ESG Reports, extract the text, and chunk them (using LangChain's RecursiveCharacterSplitter with a threshold of 1000 characters). We then manually re-annotate the queries to ensure that they are linked to the relevant chunk of the annotated original page. Queries were manually crafted in the original dataset.
This dataset provides a focused benchmark for contextualized embeddings. It includes a curated set of original documents, chunks stemming from them, and queries.
- Number of Documents: 30
- Number of Chunks: 3702
- Number of Queries: 36
- Average Number of Tokens per Doc: 205.5
Dataset Structure (Hugging Face Datasets)
The dataset is structured into the following columns:
documents: Contains chunk information:"chunk_id": The ID of the chunk, of the formdoc-id_chunk-id, wheredoc-idis the ID of the original document andchunk-idis the position of the chunk within that document."chunk": The text of the chunk
queries: Contains query information:"query": The text of the query."answer": The answer relevant to the query, from the original dataset."chunk_ids": A list of chunk IDs that are relevant to the query. This is used to link the query to the relevant chunks in thedocumentsdataset.
