For me seems to be CSV, but you have "~" in place of double quotes, and
"^" as separator.

I'd like to import this data into a Postgres database:

However, I'm not quite sure what format this is. It's definitely not
CSV. Here's an example of a few rows:
~01001~^~0100~^~Butter, salted~^~BUTTER,WITH
SALT~^~~^~~^~Y~^~~^0^~~^6.38^4.27^8.79^3.87
~01002~^~0100~^~Butter, whipped, with salt~^~BUTTER,WHIPPED,WITH
SALT~^~~^~~^~Y~^~~^0^~~^6.38^4.27^8.79^3.87
~01003~^~0100~^~Butter oil, anhydrous~^~BUTTER
OIL,ANHYDROUS~^~~^~~^~Y~^~~^0^~~^6.38^4.27^8.79^3.87
~01004~^~0100~^~Cheese,

~01008~^~0100~^~Cheese,

~01010~^~0100~^~Cheese,

colby~^~CHEESE,COLBY~^~~^~~^~Y~^~~^0^~~^6.38^4.27^8.79^3.87
Is there an easy way to get this into PG, or a tool I can download for
this, or do I need to parse it myself with a script or something?
Thanks!
