Python Request Takes Forever - Can't find proper XHR Request-CodePudding

I'm want to access some data from:

https://www.calorie-charts.info/food/all/banana

I tried a Python Request Session but it takes up to 2 minutes to get a response.

import requests

s = requests.Session()

headers = {
'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/104.0.5112.79 Safari/537.36'
}

url = 'https://www.calorie-charts.info/food/all/banana"'

s.headers.update(headers)

r = s.get(url)
print(r.text)

I also tried to find an api link for a XHR Request but I couldn't find one in the Dev Tool - Network Tab.

How can I speed up the process or find a link for a XHR Request?

CodePudding user response：

This is one way to get that data (UPDATED: all 34 pages):

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as bs
import pandas as pd
from tqdm import tqdm

headers = {
'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/104.0.5112.79 Safari/537.36'
}

s = requests.Session()
s.headers.update(headers)

big_df = pd.DataFrame()

for x in tqdm(range(1,35)):
    url = f'https://www.calorie-charts.info/food/all/banana/page/{x}'

    r = s.get(url)
    df = pd.read_html(r.text)[0]
    big_df = pd.concat([big_df, df], axis=0, ignore_index=True)
print(big_df)

Result:
