Our reading of FoodEx2 Encoder, from the data
FoodEx2 Encoder is an MCP server from foodnotes-org, listed in the official MCP Registry.
Its endpoint requires sign-in or an API key just to list tools, so we haven't measured its token cost; we never use real credentials.
Maintenance is active: the last public signal was 2 days ago (2026-10-16).
It runs as a hosted endpoint, so there is nothing to install.
