 ### Changed ###
 
+- identifiables of single CFoods are now treated one after the other. This 
+  allows them to have dependencies among each other if they are ordered 
+  correctly
 - identifiables must have at least one property or a name
 * `caosadvancedtools.serverside.helper.init_data_model` also checks the role
   and data type of entities.
