Now...I want send to google sitemap all flavors urls for that product, something like look between (...):
/company-e-snack-solido-brandname-(vanilla)-brandname-power-sport-competition-bar-5-bar-da-40-gr-cad~P1621
/company-e-snack-solido-brandname-(cioccolate)-brandname-power-sport-competition-bar-5-bar-da-40-gr-cad~P1621
/company-e-snack-solido-brandname-(orange)-brandname-power-sport-competition-bar-5-bar-da-40-gr-cad~P1621
company-e-snack-solido-brandname-(apple)-brandname-power-sport-competition-bar-5-bar-da-40-gr-cad~P1621
This the question.
All URLS with flavors specific have an permanent redirect 301 to the real URL with no flavor specific...but this tecnique can be penalize?
I want that google indexe all flavors but don't want my product can be an span index.
I must send only one (without flavor) or all but redirect the 5 urls at same product to one of theme.
Thanks, Alen Italy

Here's a comment from JohnMu at Google:
...you need to list the final URLs in your Sitemap file. They should not be redirecting elsewhere.Google Webmaster Forum [google.com]
So my advice is not to take this approach. Keywords in the file path are not a big factor. And unless you are using an automated appraoch that needs to create such a long file-name, I would suggest making your urls much shorter
