What I was doing was:
subject_source,subject_term_type,subject_term,subject_source,subject_term_type,subject_term,
Unspecified
ingested source,Topical,Pepperoni,Unspecified ingested
source,Topical,Cheese. Then only Cheese gets created and imported.

Yeah, and I can take a look at how the importer works now as well, I just
wasn't sure if it was a known issue, or if there was a specific reason for
it.

Thanks!
Maura
